Got a spare set of discs now my Puma is sold. Good condition, will scrub up nicely after a few stops. £45 posted, or £35 collected from the Aberdeen area

For sale is my 1998 Ford Puma 1.7 with Lux Pack (heated front windscreen, air con and CD player) 11 months road tax and 10 months MOT. 106k miles. Just been serviced and has a folder full of history and receipts. I bought it as a winter protect and have done the following over the winter: -...

Had a metalic noise coming from the front of my car when going over pot holes or speed bumps. I bought ARB bushes and was about to change them, but as it happens I found this loose part rattling about, I removed it by pulling it right through, but what is it? Should I be worried?

Evening all, I fitted new shock absorbers, springs and the rubber top mounts on the inside of the turret. But I'm getting a slight knocking noise and wondering if this is my problem... Doesn't look right to me, but it's as tight as I can get it by hand (spanner and hey key). Perhaps I need an...

Got a knocking\clunk type noise when going over potholes or speed bumps. Over the winter I've replaced the shock absorbers, top mounts, springs and the wishbones are pretty new. I'm wondering if it's the anti roll bar bushes. I can move the bar quite easily by hand. Can get genuine Ford...

Looking for a set of used roof bars for a Puma, either Ford OEM, Thule or one of the other big brands. Thanks in advance. Graeme

Was hoping to take the car out tonight after it's winter makeover, but nope, denied last minute. I bought a set of ST150 calipers, from a bloke who seemed to be braking a Fiesta ST150 on ebay, so had no reason to doubt they are from that car. Plus the ST150 brake pads I bought fit perfectly...

I need to replace both inner CV boots, which means the shafts will need to come out. When under the car I'm thinking the driveshafts seals could be leaking and with 106K on the clock could probably be done with being replaced. Car is a '99 1.7. Couple of questions. - How big a job is it to...

Guys, Anyone got a guide on how to do this? It's the drivers side. Tried to search but as you can imagine there are a lot of entries for boot and CV must be too small to be included in the search. I beleive this is no included in the MOT test as of the 1st of Jan so should probably get it...

I'm away to waxoyl my arches so removed the sound deadening from the arches this morning. Just look how much dirt has gathered in there over the years. The car has been in the garage for the last 5 months, but just imagine how wet and damp it would have been if used through the winter. I'm not...

In the process of fitting Fiesta ST brakes. I had braided hoses on my M3 track car. To be honest I didn't noticed a huge amount of difference, but did with the clutch hose. But.... we all know how bad the Puma brakes are and feel as standard, where as the M3 was good to start with. So the...

Guys, I'm getting conflicting info on the FINIS part number I require. The car is a '99 1.7 with the newer style rear shock, not the fork type. I'm building new shocks all round with new Eibach springs. Ordered the "front strut top mountings" but not sure of the equivlant rear part number...

Hi all, I started a build thread back in Sept on another forum (Pistonheads) when I got hold of the car. Recently I joined up here as it's a fantastic resource with helpful members. In return I thought you'd be interested in hearing about my Puma project :) This is the extract from my Sept...

Just a quick one, got all the parts now.... should I use the hose that came with the Fiesta ST calipers or use the original Puma hose? Would certainly be easier to disconnect it at the caliper end... Don't suppose someone knows the part number for the ST carrier bolt? I'm missing one. Thanks...

Hi, Has anyone successfully bought a pair clear side indicators kit for their Puma? Read reviews on here of some not fitting, falling out or not coming with the correct bulbs. G

I'm stuck.... removed the rears easily, but struggling to release the front shock. I've removed the bolt holding it on to the hub, I've removed the drop link, undone and removed the top mount and lastly detached the caliper support braket. What's the trick? I assume you have to lever down...

Evening all, Quickly come to the conclusion that the 4 shock absorbers on the 1.7 Puma I'm doing up as a project are probably well past their best at 106K miles. I've got a new set of Eibach springs coming this week. The question is, should I buy standard Sachs replacements from Euro car...

Evening all, I'm repalcing my rocker cover gasket and noticed the engine earth wire is split and on it's last legs. Does anyone have the part number for it? Car is a '99 1.7 engine. Thanks in advance. Graeme
