Ford Festiva The Ford Festiva was introduced for 1988. Three trim levels were offered: L, L Plus, and LX. The Festiva's 1.3-liter 4-cylinder engine switched from carburetion to fuel injection in 1989-90. For '90, a 5-speed manual transmission was standard and a 3-speed automatic optional. Festivas got a fresh grille and taillamps for 1990, and motorized front shoulder belts replaced manual belts.

Default Bogging down

I now have this problem with the injectors on this car.i can't seem to find the problem ...

here is the scenario...it runs fine as long as it is cool or cold or from a fresh start...but soon as it warms up it starts bogging down to the point of where it dont want to go ...now when i turn the car off and leave it off for a few seconds it runs fine till i stop and have to go again...it seems as though it is losing all power....can anyone give me some idea of what is going on please? if you can email me ...

I think i would have the ignition coil checked out.
then, while i was their i would look in side and look to see if the map air sencor was clean and intack,
then,, i would have the tps switch checked out,

Doe's it show on the dash to ( check ingine,,- light ) If this comes on you can take it in and have a shop read the computer for codes that lead you to the problem.

try to replace the O2 senser
use
22mm wench.
pb blaster.
elbo grease, if it gets tight when un screwing it, use more pb blaster, tighten it then loosen it again. use your own judgement and you'll get it out with out harming the thread.
a new sencer will cost you about $20
