What are the spark plug settings for a 1.8 zetec engine

AND AFRICAN CAR (CLUE 1, SWINGING WORD FOR CRANKING)
the books and parts and wiring on cars are not the same world wide
so we are forced to guess the #1 top, fact, country???? why?
A FULL ENGINE SwAP INSTALL.(REBUILD)
1.6L (z6 is hard to find googled ,Impossible to learn)
THERE IS ALSO A 1.6l TDI, DIESEL BUT HAS A FORD ENGINE NAME FOR THAT.
so what fuel is this, my guess PETROL


well 2nd is spark
first is:
if engine is good and compression test pass, it may be good engine.
CAM TIMED CORRECT, COMPRESSION 150PSI UP, NOT 50.

then comes spark all 4 cylinders must have spark (tested)
so coil packs, not connected
or CKP OR CMP SENSORS UNPLUGGED OR WRECKED AT INSTALL. ALL ENGINE HARNESS CABLES MUST BE FULLY CONNECTED,.for sure parks, injectors and all sensor.s.


LAST IS FUEL (PRESSURE AT SPEC. CRANKED
OR T HIS?????

2007 Ford Focus 1.6 16V Zetec (man. 5) (model for Europe )??????? guessing this, , engine choices 2007 , call Gen2, Focus MK2 Europe.

• 1.6 L Zetec-SE I4 (petrol)
• 1.6 L Zetec-SE Ti-VCT I4 (petrol)
• 1.6 L DuraTorq TDCi I4 (diesel)
• 1.6 L DuraTorq DLD-416 DPF I4 (diesel)

see how 1.6l means so little and real names work so much better?
For the South African market, the 1.6L BZ inline-four engine was used in their Mk2
to get help on any engine problem learn what it there first
the real name and then tell it.
the sure are not the same.

Certain spark plugs you don't adjust the gap. Spark plug manufacturers may have different gap recommendations. If you want it in inches, try .051 or 1.3mm

check the timming, check spark plugs, check compression of the cylinders, check spark plug wires and if all else fails replace the ignition coil module

CHANGING SPARK PLUGS EASY.ALL YOU NEED IS SPARK PLUG SOCKET.TORQUE WRENCH WOULD BE GOOD.NOT MANDATORY IF YOU MAKE SURE NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN SPARK PLUGS STRIP OUT THREAD SINCE THEY ARE ALUMINUM.YOU NEED A 3/8 RATCHET.SHORT AND LONG EXTENSION.YOU NEED SPARK PLUG GAUGE TO SET SPARK GAP.THE 2.0 OR 2.3 ENGINE SPARK PLUG GAP IS 0.041- 0.045.

2003 FORD FOCUS 2.0L 4-cyl Engine Code [3]
Engine Oil Grade 1......API* All TEMPS......SAE 5W-20, Engine, with new oil filter 4.3 liters.
Thank you for using fixya and good luck Oil Drain Plug.....17ft/lbs Torque

lol, I never knew they made a sohc focus, 99% of these are zetecs DOHC. so they have the spark plugs down the middle of the cyliderhead.

get a plug spanner (more a socket than a spanner) and after removing the plug lead, use the spanner to remove the plug. Do one at a time so you dont get the leads mixed up or it will not start.

The Spark Plug Gap .054 (In thousandths of an inch)

Caution! Gap is not adjustable on certain plug brands

could be any of the following
1, worn ,faulty or incorrectly gapped spark plugs
2, engine management fault
3, vacuum leak at the inlet manifold or associated hoses

1.3mm
