Hi Chris,
I've sent this twice in response to your private emails to me but you
don't seem to be getting the replies.
Jim
Thats seems to be the correct part.
Have a look inside it at the actual sensor (through the small round
hole) and make sure there is no dirt or dead flies on the sensor.
You can clean it with a small soft paintbrush but it is very delicate.
Also, try unplugging the MAF sensor (with the engine off) and run it
like that to see if it's any better.
It should run just as well with it unplugged.

I've tried 99 Octane fuel, but made no difference.
Going back to basics can anyone confirm the part numbers to work with a 2.0l
DESK Mondeo ECU on a 2.0l Silver Top Zetec, Fiesta Alloy Inlet manifold and
Brown Injectors.
MAF
Throttle Body
Throttle Position Sensor
Any other 2.0 Mondeo specific sensors or parts?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
How about filling up with some Tesco 99 octane? This is what I originally
(stupidly) tuned mine to which caused pinking on any other fuel. Might be
worth a go to at least see if it is likely fuel related. I'd say at least to
try a new tank of fuel, I've heard anecdotal of pinking on same octane
different brand fuel.
I've some octane boost lying about I bought for the Ireland trip as there
was no super available over there, however it didn't seem to help for me.
if you happen to be passing you are welcome to it. Although I doubt it will
prove anything.
Good luck
Matthew

Thanks for the suggestions.
Definitely sounds like Pinking rather than a knock.
It happened all last week during the Haggis Hunt II with a mixture of
different brands of petrol (Esso, Jet, BP, Murco etc. ) only one tank of
Asda fuel.
I checked the plug gaps this evening and they were about 2.5mm. I reduced
this to the 1.3mm stated in the Haynes manual. Then drove it from cold in
cooled air. It still pinks.
Any more ideas?
Regards
Chris

Are you using Tescos petrol ?
I've noticed my 2.0 Mondeo pinking the last few weeks.
It's now back to a standard engine spec so shouldn't be due to that.

I have a 2 litre silver top with Ford DESK ecu in a 2+2.
It runs well ms of the time, but whenever I try to accelerate hard it

a rattling noise like pre ignition.
Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks for that Jim. I've ordered the Hadrian injection Mk2 Fiesta
tank, which appears to have the outlet in the same place as yours (I
assume OEM from the lack of filter?).
A filter was definitely on the plan. Should be room for a small one...
good tip on the half-inch bend, thanks!
So, tank 12mm -> bend 12mm -> filter 12mm -> pump ->8mm -> fuel rail.
Ta!

The Ford tank has a filter in the tank so you don't need a pre pump one.
A pattern one probably doesn't so one would be a very good idea.
But you need a low pressure filter not a high pressure one.

Jim, on this

you show the fuel pump... do you recall the part number, and perhaps
more critically, the output size of the tank? It *looks* like 8mm, but
I need to order filter and pump urgently and would hate to then find
it's 12mm.
I won't be getting the tank till Saturday so I can't measure it!
Thanks,
Neil
