1993 Ford Escort GT review from North America
"Good gas mileage, and fast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Its broke down right now, I'm thinking the timing belt. I've replaced the fuel pump, put a new air flow meter on it, and it is in need of a alternator belt. And the heads where replaced along with the brakes before I got the car.
General comments?
Most of these problems from what I here are general in the escort, and it dosen't help that the previous owner recked the car a couple of times. But I still love the car and it is surprisingly fast for a 4 banger.
127 hp
16.5 in the 1/4 mile stock.
