Want this question answered?
yes they had a diesel engine but only for 2 years 1984-1986 and the engine was made by Oldsmobile
yes he did The correct answer is no he did not.This is often a misconception as Rudolf Diesel has been accredited by many[wrongly] as the inventor of the diesel engine,the correct answer is,Herbert akroyd Stuart invented the diesel engine,in 1886 he designed and built a working diesel engine,almost four years before Rudolf Diesel had the notion.Stuart together with the Hornsby company of England had the diesel engine in manufacturing and for sale on the open market in 1891.
The correct answer is, he did not invent the then known compression ignition engine, which was named after him,DIESEL engine,he was accredited wrongly with the invention of the C,I,engine,the true inventor was Herbert akroyd Stuart and the date he had a working heavy oil [we now know as diesel] engine was 1886 some four to five years before Rudolf Diesel.
The Fiesta has undergone many design changes in its many years of production and it has been fitted with a variety of different petrol and diesel engines. All have different oil filters. One petrol variant is reputed to have its oil filter located behind the engine where not even the Ford mechanic can get at it - but that may be an Urban Myth. You need to identify which engine you've got fitted.
He didn't. Herbert Ackroyd-Stuart in fact created and patented the first functioning compression ignition engine some 7 years before Rudolf Diesel.
The gasoline engine came first. The gasoline engine was invented and patented in 1823 with the first efficient gasoline engine developed in 1876. The diesel was invented in 1893 which was 70 years after the gasoline engine.
Petrol, 40,000 miles, 4 years. (ignore the service book, which may say 80,000 or 8 years, as most won't actually last this long) Diesel depends on engine type. Vauxhall diesel engine 80,000 miles, 8 years. Isuzu Diesel engine 100,000 miles, 10 years. 2.2 petrol, and 2.0 diesel are cam chain, and should not need changing.
I was looking at motorcraft.com and found listings for the 7.3 L diesel from 1988 to 2003
I know that the 2003 ford f250 diesel was what they call the lemon year. They swiched from a 7.3 to 6.0
The life expectancy of a 6.6L Duramax is 10 years and 350,000 miles. The life expectancy of a 6.7L Cummins is 11 years and 410,000 miles. The life expectancy of a 5.9L Cummins is 15 years and 500,000 miles!
