How do you install an exhaust manifold on a mid 90's Ford Aspire?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Follow the manual (Haynes, Chilton, Ford Factory).

After the old manifold is off, clean the mating surfaces. Install a new gasket (no cement). Bolt on the new manifold. Tighten the bolts and nuts to the torque specs in the manual following the procedure in the manual. Bolt it to the exhaust pipe (new gasket also).

Where is the fuse located for radio and cassette player in a 94 Ford Aspire?

User Avatar

Asked by Bonsboy

1) Check your owner's manual if you have it - there's a description, location & fuse box diagram in there.

2) If you don't have your manual, the standard radio fuse is in the middle of the bottom row of the fuse box in the driver's foot well. 10 amp fuse (red). The diagram calls it 'room' and it protects a bunch of other stuff.

3) If you have the premium sound system, there's another fuse on the upper right side of that fuse box - but I don't have that so I don't remember which one it is.

Or - you could always pull them out one by one to see if they're blown.

What would cause your 1996 Ford Aspire to start and then just shut off on its own?

It could be a tear in your air cleaner hose. The hose from your air filter to the throttle body. If the mass air flow sensor does not have enough air suction ( or enough volume of air) going across it it will shut down the engine.

1997 Ford Aspire How do you change the thermostat got the hose disconnected and a bolt but not coming out Also where is the petcock to empty the radiator you cannot find it on this radiator?

Asked by Wiki User

I AM NOT familiar with this exact vehicle, but as far as the petcock goes, if the radiator is plastic, there may not be one at the bottom. You may just have to remove the bottom hose and drain it from there. As far as the thermostat goes, ask a Ford dealer or invest in the big orange book called "CHILTONS". You can find a Chiltons at major automotive stores. The book is expensive, but well worth it if you do your own repairs on a regular basis. GOOD LUCK

What causes oil to blow out of the dip stick and oil filler holes on a 1996 Ford Aspire?

User Avatar

Asked by Chaihealer

It's called "blow-by", a condition caused by combustion gasses leaking past the piston rings. It's an indication that the engine has not been adequately maintained. That means that you are in need of a new set of piston rings.
