Loved the battle with the welded nut being fully documented. Lots of people would have edited it out.

Made the video that. Then for it to come out anyway. Class.

This is everything we wanted on wheel dealers , no fake buyers no messing about a very educational video , subscribed ❤️

I wet myself when you cleaned the fuel filter bracket ... Just pour cleaner all over it and over the wood worktop/chopping board. Class act.😂😂

Tip for removing anything stuck to paintwork. Heat up with a hairdryer, the heat reactivate the adhesive. You won't need to pull as hard, also lessons the strain on the surface it's stuck or bonded to 👍 love your videos and content, really easy to follow 🤜🤛

Nearly spat my cup of tea on the screen when you were welding those nuts (and your spanner) on mate FN hilarious - great work 😅

Try changing your temp sensor, the ecu reads from the temp sensor and adjusts fueling to suit temp.

Exactly,I did put this in the first video,when the ECU coolant temp sensor completely fails it will show up as an ECU failure fault code,makes the car run like a turd and will cut out and won’t restart until it’s cooled down ,I’m surprised Adam hasn’t scanned this as the OBD port is on the N/S/F suspension turret near the battery.

That was comedy gold welding those nuts 😂, thanks for leaving that in still chuckling now.

When I wanted to remove a stuck on front reg plate on my old Corrado, I used a heat gun to soften the glue first. Loving this series! 👍🏻👍🏻

Getting better and better!

Love watching you work through the problems and you must get a kick out of resolving them. No one is born an “expert” and hats off to you for getting amongst it.

Im older then you pal had loads of old classics,its a labour of love and never ending bud, brilliant content as always cheers Adam

Paul saw you coming Adam 🤣

Another little job getting closer this legend to perfection. ❤

Great content Adam always look forward to your uploads. Hope you get it running properly 🚗

Even in its current state it’s a stunning car, great seeing you releasing videos of the transformation. Considering you are a bloke in the garage having ago I admire that attitude and seeing you improve the car. I know I wouldn’t have the guts to do that. Looking forward to the next videos 🙂

Love these videos mate , brilliant

Well done. Getting there!

Greetings from New Zealand Adam. Have been watching your videos for a while now and you do an awesome job. Keep up the great informative work, you thoroughly deserve to own these amazing cossies. 👍

Great content buddy it's a 100 times better than what is on main stream TV well done fella

Love your presentation style, you legend Adam!

Great video Adam , slowly getting there great content good luck 👍👍

Love these cars, sat in one at the Birmingham motor show back in the 90s....they had just come out and the que to just have a moment sat in one was crazy ...but we waited haha ha😂.... it had the hex cloth interior and it was stunning. Great content again Adam, can't wait until you've got this on the road.

Brilliant video again Adam your getting there, well done.

Brilliant Sunday morning cuppa tea and a new video to watch. Great stuff Adam. Ag motorsport knows his stuff by the way 👌🏻

Loving this adventure bro. Your rear plate isn't straight!!! Left hand side is lower than the right side. 😁

Adam we have faith you will get this 💯- great spot on the last video.

Love the way you used process of allimination to get to the bottom of the problem 😊 you'll get there mate..👌

Superb KZread channel- love your videos - had a few RS’s over the years - love the passion and enthusiasm you put into them and it’s great you do it yourself- something I can relate too- keep it up Adam 👏👏👏

Well done Adam, those original font dealer registration plates look so much more period correct. This car is looking good now, I can’t wait to see more videos featuring it❤.

Your doing a good job Adam 👍 love the car by the way and can't wait to see it out on the road.

Love watching guys like this work. Zero shortcuts 👌

You crack me up with the degreaser, splash it all over job done !! love the channel btw

Loving the series.

I thoroughly enjoyed this Adam. Fantastic car.

Hi Adam, great video, mate not really an avid watcher but love the Escort mate nice to see a guy having a go , best of luck

well done. Getting there mate

Glad I'm not the only one that loves the difference a decent number plate can make

Cracking video Adam loving this series

Love the new hoist Adam and enjoy watching ya videos in new Zealand man . Keep up the good work look faward to seeing the escort cozy progress 😊

Hi Adam enjoying the content with the new project, when i fit new plates i measure the plate, then i place masking tape on the bumper top and the 2 sides make sure the tape looks and is level, then fit the double sided tape and the place the number plate under the masking tape and inside the 2 tapes on the sides. Another tip, when removing glue residue from vehicles body panels i use mineral turps to clean the glue residue, let it soak on the glue, then rub with a soft rag. Plus the mineral turps will not damage the paint.

Great video Adam 👍

Great progress so far!

Great work Adam! Some great info in your videos and sure you inspire plenty of people including myself to have a go at jobs on there own car

Hi Adam and fellow Mackem, loving your journey on your Escort Cosworth, can't wait to see you get onto the road 👍

Ngl i was laughing for about 10 mins after the welding haha

Great video Adam. Could watch them all day. The fitting that the banjo bolt goes into is a banjo union I think 👍

Good job Adam you’re cracking on I can’t wait to see what this car will turn out like. Now I need to wait till next Sunday for another video 🥺

Adam lad iv been following your channel for a very long time now and I have enjoyed every single video. But on this Cossy Escourt I wish your videos were at least an hour long Adam lad because I could sit and watch you work on that beautiful car all day long! I wish you nothing but luck not that you need it because I know you will get that car exactly how you want it!!! Keep up the excellent work Adam lad. Kind regards, John 👍🙂👍

Loving this journey with the escort cossie brings back memories when I had my mk5 escort cabriolet in plumb purple only ever saw one other on the road was a rare colour back then Ford didn’t make many back then still miss it today after nearly 20 years 😭😭😢we’ll done mate loving this build 😀😀

That garage is a thing of beauty! 🤩

Great video, keep up the good work fella

Hello from Stockton on Tees Adam, good call on the number plates those Euro/UK plates are hideous, then when I saw the Nesham main dealer plates going on so many good memories of the early 90's they had a place in Thornaby and Middlesbrough were I used to get my parts for my Sierra XR4i and XR4X4 back in the day, good times!

Great videos Adam 👍

The amount of those bumper clips I’ve lost over the years , I’ve just put a tied string on mine now so when they do pop off,,it’s dangaling on said string and not lost , nice progress mate

Appreciate all the explaining still! :D I'm learning good from this, and are building up the nerves to do shit myself :)

“Using my paint booth” 😆👍. I’ve done exactly the same in the past 😆👍

Well done Adam u will get there 👍

Hello Adam Looks like ii was right in my previous comment of changing the crank position sensor as i described it was the exact same problem my previous Escort cosworth had and the CPS was the fault Fingers crossed no more engine cutting out now. All the best Nigel 😎

Another Great Vid Adam🤩🤩👌Black screwcap cover for the N on the rear plate🧐😂😂👍

Top work Adam 😎👍

Good job 👏👏👏

You should have altered the hole on rear plate to side of number N so yellow screw cap is not over the the black letter or try it with a black cap to blend it in better. Really enjoyable video, cheers Mick

Hi Adam! I would install a A/F gauge and maybe check some volts on the ecu very carefully. I would be careful with the breakcleaner around plastic, especially the Plugs/wires. Can do more harm than good. For this you can get special contact cleaner spray. Also note: open your garage door if you leave the cossie idling! 💀 Better safe than sorry. Next time a bolt is round, try cuting a line into the head so you can get it loose with lots of rust remover and a flathead screwdriver. Or you could also get yourself a small torch like for cooking and heat the bolt right up until it glows. I know, that also wouldn't be ideal next to the fuelfilter.😅 If you remove anything sticky the next time heat it up with a hairdryer. Just not too much or else you'll damage the paint. I would've rather closed the holes from the rear number plates and just to minor paint adjustments since its behind the number plate. With this now it could start to rust. You can also write the current milage on the fuel filter with a water resistant marker. Just some small tips from one DIY-fella to another one. ✌️💪

Good update - love that comment about men’s Ugg boots haha you’re right …

The Idle Air Control Valve is infamous on our V6 Mk3 Mondeos, It does not usually cause running problems but makes the car produce a crazy sound known as Moosing when you come off the throttle.

Class mate.
