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.

You need to have a buddy help you. Have your buddy get in the car and put it in fourth gear with the clutch out and hold the brakes tight while you loosen the bolt. Its righty tighty. 96 festiva huh, are you from down under ? (AUS)
