My Puma Black needs a new home. Sadly I think the best outcome is for me to break it. I’ve owned this since late 2008, it was my daily for the first couple of years, however was used by one of my parents since around 2010. Exterior is a bit scabby, rear arches are rough, paintwork hasn’t had a...

Picking it up soon. Probably just going to keep it until the winter when convertibles get cheaper, but quite looking forward to running it in the meantime. 56 plate, 79k miles, bit basic, but should be fun nonetheless!

I am thinking about going for a performance air filter, not an induction kit, just a more free flowing filter for the (FRP type) airbox. I would be interested in any opinions on which one to go for, or if I should just stick with my paper filter, changing every 10k. Thanks for your time!

I am looking to buy a spare gearbox to fit an LSD to. I don't really want to change anything about the characteristics of the transmission, and assume it would be sensible to replace the bearings in the transmission when fitting the diff. What should I be looking for with a used gearbox though...

I have a pair of brand new tail lamps, however I am reluctant to fit them as I currently have no problem with the tail lamps fogging up, and am concerned that when fitting new ones, I may not be so lucky. The current tail lamps aren't bad, they just have the typical light scratches that one...

I am in the process of rebuilding a couple of sets of Recaro seats, having them in bits has got me thinking about fitting heating elements, either to the Recaro's, or possibly to my original seats. Waeco kits seem to be available for around £60, but my question is where would you fit the...

The most important thing before any modifications, is to make sure that the car is running properly, and is not in need of any maintenance, either to the engine, suspension or tyres. By all means replace worn parts with a better alternative, but there is no point in having a 160 PS motor in a...

As promised, parts list and how to for fitting the inlet. Recommended parts for fitting FRP inlet manifold, I have provided prices where they were readily available, no clue on the supports, but if you work off £0.50 each on the bolts you should be ok. You might get away without replacing the...

My front o/s ABS sensor is faulty, so I bought a new one today, checked it when I got home, and the end is black, with two metallic sensors. The rear ones had a silver cap, and I thought from when I gave the fronts a clean, that they also had a silver cap. Can anyone who has experience of front...

Ok, starting to get excited about my inlet, but how do I go about removing the old one and fitting the new? I understand I need to remove the old mani, and take the TB and ICV from it. How difficult is it to access the fittings for the original mani? Understand I need to remove and modify the...

Looks like I am going to get one of my rear quarters repainted as part of a minor rust repair. There is a small scratch and a shopping trolley dent, so at least those will be gone. Unfortunately I HATE masking lines, so I really want to remove the reat quarter window before the repair, I...

December 2008 Hi, just got around to fitting the external temp sensor and posh clock, here is what I did; The parts you need are; Fiesta Ghia X clock, with temp function Ford temp probe (high spec Granada / Scorpio / Focus / Mondeo Mk1 & 2, all Mondeo Mk3, or the Fiesta the clock came out of)...

If this is in the wrong place, please move it and accept my apologies. The following relates to my Puma, but I believe should be applicable to all Ford's with red/blue PATS. It will not work with Scorpio as I believe Scorpio uses a different frequency for the remote locking. I have a few...

I am not 100% happy about how flush my drivers door sits to the bodywork, it seems to sit a touch proud, but I am not certian how to adjust. I guess all I can do is loosen, adjust, and tigten the latch and striker plate, but there doesn't look to be much room for manouvre there. Anyone know...

2001 Puma 1.7 'Black' I sold my 54 plate IS300 in June, and smoked around in a borrowed '97 Ka2 for a while. Really loved that little car, after the safety net of the Lexus (211HP and RWD with an LSD, but you can't turn the bloody stability contol off, so no tail out antics) something truly...
