Well, after thinking i had sorted the running probs with my 95 Mav they have returned but i now know the problem, just not how to fix it. The solenoids that the vacuum pipe leads to only seem to get power to them occasionally. The vacuum itself is fine but as the solenoids are not receiving any...

I went to look at a 3.0 terrano yesterday, it was tidy and i was impressed with it, just got to try and justify the £4700 he wants for it. It was an 02 with 60k 3 months warranty, fsh and 12 months mot and serviced, i thought it was a fair price what do you reckon.

Terrano it is then, which do you reckon is the best bet the 2.7 or 3.0, seems to be a few 3.0 around, are they much heavier on the juice or any other downsides, i dont need the extra pulling power but if theres a bargain 3.0 id be tempted.

Thinking of upgrading my 95 mav, i have noticed a few petrol mavericks at good prices around about 02 plates. Do these have the hi lo box? also are they the same as the terrano or did ford drop the terrano version and create their own as it looks very different. Any comments on them in general...

Hi all sorted thanks, see my post below about the EGR

A quick note to all whom have given me advice on my 95 2.7 mav running starting and idling issues. Had a play around with the egr vac pipe today but nothing happened so give the egr a technical wallop with a hammer and i heard the spring bounce sounding like it had freed up. Now the engine runs...

Hi, The idle speed adjuster is the only thing that keeps it running, i have to have it idling at 2000rpm just to stop the engine cutting out!

Thanks for that.:clap Whats a ckp sensor

How do you get to the download section is it on the forums page cos i cant see it.

No havent even heard of the egr any guidance on it would be great, does the early maverick have one and what do you have to do and where is it.

Hi, Only changed main filter about 100 mile ago, i changed it due to the poor starting / cutting out and misfiring symptoms the mav is having. I have also cleaned the battery terminals but that made no difference, i am giving it one last chance, i have it booked in the local diesel specialist so...

Hi, Thanks for quick reply, job done just as you described, filter was a little dirty but unfortunately it hasnt sorted the problem. Looks like it might be a scrap yard time regretablly.

Just about to do the mini filter on my 95 2.7 mav but it looks a little different to the excellent post that shows you how to do it, does the banjo that the filter sits in have a pipe coming out of it if so i know which one it is and it looks easyish to do without removing the power steering...

Hi, thanks for all replys so far, some excellent ideas. Idont think its glow plug related as the problem can occur when the car is up to temp. I have cleaned up the battery connections today and it is running and starting well, but as its intermittent i cant tell if its ok for a few days. I did...

Ongoing issue with my 96 2.7 Mav, sometimes it is damn near impossible to start and wont tickover, then the next day its fine, i have changed the fuel filter but as it runs fine at speed and the fault is intermittent i am ruling out anything mechanial and fuel related and now looking at the...

Thanks for replys. Where is the mini filter located, sounds like it could be the culprit

Hi does my 1995 2.7 Mav have a mass air flow sensor?

Starting warm or cold its the same so can rule out glow plugs, wheres the mini filter located. Was also wondering about the lift pump, can it be accessed easily.

Hi, until now my 95 2.7 maverick has started first turn and ticked over lovely. But this week its all gone horribly wrong, it is very difficult to start and i have to pull out the idle speed adjuster so it ticks over at 1000rpm if its any lower it will stop. I changed the diesel filter but it...

Sometimes when i pull away from a stop i get a bit of a clunk from the front end, but twice in this really icy weather shortly after setting of there has been an almighty clunk like i have ran over something. When its made its clunk it carrys on its merry way with no probs. Do you reckon its the...
