There might be something wrong with the gears. Something may be jammed or stuck or they may just need changed out.
why does my ford focus over heat when i turn the ac on
Changing gears is easy. All you have to do is push in the clutch and then up and over to third gear.
over-drive... take it its an auto On the gear selector handle, there is a button. Pushing that button will turn the Over drive off (light is on) or turn it on (light is off). This allows it to leave 3rd gear, and will put less wear on the engine and transmission at a speed of about 45 or higher.
One of the major advantage of personal submersibles over scuba gear is you can't feel the changing pressure while ascending and descending.

possible over reving cause- Idle Air Control Valve bad My ranger did same, dont know if causes bad milage though
Try changing or cleaning out the stepper motor, this controls the idle and is a common fault on the 306.
presume you are talking about a auto box the o/d light states weather the over drive is on or not when lit the overdrive is off the button is under the gear leaver handle cheers graham
In some 1982 Ford f100 trucks I know they have a 4.10 Gear ratio like my truck but with that gear ratio if you go over 55 mph you can say goodbye to your gas mileage so get a smaller gear ratio.
Thermostat stuck open??
To replace the gear knob on a Ford Focus ST170, first, ensure the car is in neutral. Grip the base of the gear knob and pull it straight up to remove it, as it is usually held in place by clips. If necessary, you may need to twist slightly or use a cloth to avoid damaging the knob or surrounding trim. Once removed, position the new gear knob over the shift lever and press down firmly until it clicks into place.
I have just spotted a 1999 ford focus with 146,000 miles on the clock. Lovley condition, good runner.
