How do you change the spark plugs on a 2005 Ford Focus?
u need a wrench or a spark plug socket and maybe an extension.......remove the spark plug wire n start unscrewing the spark plug.....when u install new spark plugs make sure it is gapped to proper specifications,......u can look on the sticker under the hood, install same way u took it off, real easy
on the 2005 and later ford focuses they have coil over, there for- you have to unscrew the bolt holding the coil down, once that bolt is removed, you simply just pull the whole unit up and out, once out you remove the spark plug as u normally would probably with a 6" extension, and the appropriate spark plug socket. and just reverse the process, there quite easy to do.
The starter on my Focus 2.3 Litre, won't even crank, if the transponder isn't making
contact, with the sensor around the lock cylinder. There is also a TSB(Technical Service
Bulletin) for a "Hard Starting" condition for the Focus. If I park my car, then go to start
it again, it will crank, but not start on occassion, so maybe that's what's going on instead, don't know. You have to get the ECU reprogrammed by a Ford dealer, to get the TSB thing done, which is free. Good luck.
How do you install r-134a IN A 2000 FOCUS?
You would fill the system with R-134a, using the low side port. The bad part is that your low side port is not easy to access. You will need to remove the passenger side wheel, remove the plastic wall and your port is there.

Under the bonnet there is a fuse bow near the bulkhead. Fuse number 63 is central locking. Its a 20 amp fuse.

How do you take off the door panel on a 2000 Ford Focus?
To take off the panel, first go around the outside of the panel and remove 6 screws. Two at the outside, two at the hinge and two on the bottom.
Next, there is a small pop cover under the door opening lever, take this out and remove the screw. this will allow you to take off the cover around the door lever.
On the main door handle there are two holes underneath, take a square head screwdriver and push into the holes and click the catches. This will pop off the cover on the handle. Under this cover there are two big square head screws that attached the handle to the door frame.
Once removed the door cover will just fall out.
You may need to charge your a/c with refrigerant.
To get this cleared does the 88 prelude 2.0si have a b20a5 or b20a3 and is it dohc or sohc?
The 1988 Prelude Si has the optional B20A5 DOHC EFI engine. The standard B20A3 2.0 L SOHC carburated engine was not used in the Si. So you can tell by the fuel system, which engine you have. The standard engine had Carbs and the Si engine had FI.

Where is the PVC valve on a 2001 Focus?
on the bottom half of the air box, theres a whole on the lower left that connects a pipe to the engine
It is not legal, and as the computer tries to correct for the missing converter, the fuel economy and engine performance will suffer.
Most likely if you remove the cat, the fuel mileage will get worse.
Ok, so since that won't work, can I buy a turbo muffler or something, such as Hooker. You can convert it to a true dual exhaust system and it will help your fuel economy but it is not cost effective. By the time you purchase the necessary parts and another converter to keep it legal, the money you spend can never be recovered in fuel savings.
Ford Focus air con low side port?
Turn your steering wheel to the right. The port is in front of the right wheel on the fender well, closest to the radiator.
What is a back flush on the cooling system?

Sit in the car with the doors shut and unlocked, and with your seat belt fastened to avoid interference from the seat belt reminder chime.
- 2
Put the key in the ignition, and turn it from position one ("Off") to position three ("On") rapidly eight times within 10 seconds, ending in position three.

The Ford Focus doors will lock and unlock automatically, signaling that the car is in remote keyless entry programming mode.
- 4
Within 20 seconds, press any button on each keyless remote. After each remote is programmed, the car doors will automatically lock and unlock to confirm successful programming. When all remotes have been programmed, turn the ignition to position one. The doors will automatically lock and unlock, confirming that remote keyless entry programming is complete.

First thing, check your vacuum hoses. Second, unhook your battery for about an hour, then hook it back up. The computer may need to reset itself. After that, you're on your own.
- The most common vacuum hose issue with a focus is the PCV hose wher it goes to the back of the intake manifold. You should check that, but ususlly if you have a vacuum hose problem, it won't show up as a P0301 and a p0304 fail code, like you have. It will ususlly be a p0171 which is a lean code.
Since your fail codes are 301 and 304, you should actually check to see if you have ignition fire to the #1 and #4 cylinders. Evidentally you already checked that and didn't have fire, otherwise, I wouldn't think you would have replaced the coil pack, without doing that simple test. But in case you didn't, then you need to. If you have no fire to those two cyliders, and you are sure your plug wires are good, then likely there is something wrong in the PIP signal to the coil pack from the PCM. On the coil pack, there is a connector into the side with three wires. One is a shared PIP(pulsed ground signal) to the towers for cyls #1 and #4, one is a PIP to #2 and #3, and the third wire is a common power input. PIP is a pulsed ground from the PCM. The PCM pulses the ground "on" everytime it wants to fire either the #1/#4 cylinders, or the #2/#3 cylinders. So the #1 and the #4 plugs both fire at the same time, and so do the #2 and #3 plugs. The cylinder that isn't on it's compression stroke just receives a harmless "waste" spark.
If you DO have spark to these plugs, then you could have bad plugs. But if you DO NOT have bad plugs, then your problem IS NOT ignition. If your problem is not ignition, then you could have fuel injector issues or engine compression issues.
One thing is certain. When you find and fix the problem, you will know it. The engine will straighten up and run fine. No "resetting" of the PCM is necessary, other than to turn off the check engine light. "Reseting" the PCM does not fix problems. That is a common misconception.
You have what is referred to as a "misfire" evidentally on the numbers 1 and 4 cylinders. Four things cause a misfire: ignition failure(spark), fuel failure(lack of fuel), engine compression failure to those cylinders, or coolant getting into those two cyliders which is causing the fuel to not combust.
RECAP: Start with spark which is coil, plugs, or plug wires. If you don't have spark, find out why. Is it plugs, lug wires, or do you have no PIP signal on that circuit to those two coil towers.
Second, if spark is not your problem, then check engine compression. Get an engine compression guage and test all four cyliders. All will be around 150 PSI if they are good. Any cylinders that are under 100 PSI are a problem.
Third, make sure all four fuel injectors are firing.
Do those three thiings, and I'll bet somewhere along the line, you will find your problem.
What happens when water comes out of the exhaust?
nothing should happen it just means it probably hasn't been ran in a while so it's cleaning the headers and exhaust out. ammerman98 out
