1.9L in the escorts

I use to own one before I got my contour and what a POS they were I would fix one thing and another would go bad on it.

Me too. A buddy used to have one and it was pretty fun to zip around in. Handled pretty good.




i dont, not when their head gaskets go, it took my dad and i 2 weeks to do one about 5 years ago, it was a PITA.

Used to drive an '86 Lynx wagon, four-speed. 296k miles on her. I used to beat up on that car. Burnouts burnouts burnouts. I also outran my friend, who was driving a '96 Caddy Eldorado w/ Northstar. His Caddy was limited to 115mph, and so with the Lynx absolutely floored I pulled away by like 1/4 mile! I sh!t you guys not it was the funniest thing, he was SO embarrased! I have no idea how fast I was going. Speedo went to 90mph I think. Needle was almost at 6:00. Great ol' rustbucket. Of course it took me a good minute to get up to that speed. But once she got there the Lynx was all business.

I did the same thing in my Topaz agenst my buddy in his civic. He had to tell me what speed I passed him at, we estimate I was going 120 since I passed him at 115.
