Needs a new quadrant ratchet on pedal

how many million is this car? and the rear panel is out of alignment lol

Plug is for abs cable should be abs for abs model. As i said before is the gearbox ok? Is the clutch .clutch realse bearing ok? Is the gearstick shifter adjusted right if that isnt set right wont go in gear

Last video I adviced you to check the gearbox rods, did you do it? If the problem was just the clutch not disenganging or disenganging to little, you would hear grinding noises when trying to put it in gear! You have no noises, so I would asume the gear lever isn't able to engage them pinions. Check that the reaction rod is safely secured and won't move, and that the other rod is indeed doing its thing.

You only paid 14250

It's just teething problem mate. Got to love old fords.. mine is in the garage with low oil pressure atm but not giving up on it..

I would put the car back in the auction more trouble than its worth

I would say the clutch pressure plate isn't moving enough to release the disc Faulty or weak springs on pressure plate. Or Clutch disc is too thick (wrong friction Material) causing too much clamping ,so pressure plate cant release disc

Hi mate, yes the yellow plug was for the abs system as my one had it on, it’s also been removed, I don’t think Rs turbo ownership is for you my friend this is what it’s like most of the time working on them it’s almost part of the charm and experience of having a classic ford Rs!😂

Really hate the green and the interior. These things only look good with the least shouty colours

Sounds rough for a cvh turbo . U must have the wrong cable . My e and f plate had abs i binned it its s##te the abs

Make sure u have the right cable but also deffo check the falk as could be bent broken or been put on the spline wrong

Oh mate I miss my s2. Bought it completely standard it ended up a sea of chrome.

just get somone to leaver arm over on gearbox. then try gears wile they hold it there. if it works cable must be wrong

Check the fork on top of gearbox where cable clips in, the weld can break

I don't know of any model or version of the MK4 RS that came without ABS, they all had the stupid Ford belt driven mechanical system. And many if not most owners removed it, which seems the case in your car. As for your clutch, I find it puzzling that gears are not screeching when trying to engage them, they just don't go into position. Are you sure the gear linkage is working properly? I see wobble when you move the lever, there are two plastic pieces that wear out under it and cause that, but maybe your rods are not acting properly, there are silentblocks where it attaches to the gearbox in the reacton rod, check that it has no play. Ideally rise the car with engine stopped and have someone press the lutch and see how much travel you get at the end of the cable and if the gear rods move enough when trying to put it in gear.

Common to replace

Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, If no one else can help and if you can find them. Maybe you can hire, The A-Team. Only joking !🙃 Right back in the day these used to be a right pig on all Fords . you may have replaced everything but it's highly likely that ratchet isn't operating correctly . basically there's too much slack in the adjustment, this is a few moments job . Requires two of you, one pressing on the clutch, and you need a large flat screwdriver or lever to force the clutch arm on the bell housing towards the the direction of travel , the clutch operates . This forces the quadrant to take up more slack . I don't believe it's the cable because regardless of the model the have the same gearbox. If my trick doesn't work then it's likely the cable is stretched. Another thought is the clutch arm is distorted inside or has been substituted for the incorrect one. Hope this information helps

xsara vts clutch cable easier replace 😂 if you can find one

That rs turbo. Walk away from it have a think. Come back to it. My rs is on a G. So can't help . But your right no abs. 👍

I arrived around 11am and parked beside the Cortina. I think you missed me!

What's all the fuss about? There's an identical car parked next to it. I have a VW camper van and it's rare there'll be another next to it when I park ;-)

Hardy souls braving those conditions. Frozen toes I imagine. Beautiful cars as usual, thanks for the 4k upload. 👌

I can't wait to see the medal room

JK zOS one of the few miso celebs who can actually drive well. He’s quick.

well at the end of the day all i will say is. its an rs turbo it will have been used shall we say. you have always got to check everything before using properly.

That's sounds terrible unless the video making it sound worse than it is

Your not selling it lol i look forward to doing mine, said i would sell mine in 99 and still got it

Wow, that brings back memories! I never got the hang of doing them but my friend could do it start to finish in about 10 minutes without taking the seat out so he always done them for me LOL

Good luck with the car keep the updates going I was close to buying this I stopped at £14k so we were bidding against each other I wish you all the best on getting this beauty back on the road

Heater matrix is probably blocked, rad weld is great at a temporary fix but blocks heater matrix up. I would go for a Cosworth but have to admit I too have always had a soft spot for a capri 2.8i

Get a mk5 pedal conversion with bespoke engineering alloy quadrant, you won’t need to change the weak plastic one ever again.

Got a 1.6 cvh engine on the crate ready to put in that, all built up from it's a spare for my red rs, would sell it

Those suspension bushes on the front roll bar to tca are orange floflex bushes, one of the worst bushes you can get and would definitely bin them in place for powerflex or superpro bushes. You'll thank me for it

Thermostat housing ok mine forever had issues for leaking and expansion tank issues as well hairline cracks, just a thought pal

The irony is that in the UK classic cars are usually considered "summer cars", but here in Spain they are normally "winter cars" as they lack air-con and usually have engines prone to boil 😂 I know I much rather drive my Fiesta RS turbo in the colder season than in summer, with ambient temps of 40º C and the engine melting under the bonnet ...

280 brooklands capri my all time favourite car

Love both your cars having owned both many years ago, ive got a c4 loeb edition that ive had 4 years that i love, dont get to use it as much due to having copd (lung disease) but cant moan lol, loving your content keep them coming

Thanks for uploading

Just remember with these cars they all have history, as long as it isn’t rotten underneath everything else can be sorted, if you ever get up to Blackpool way book in with MSD ;) good luck with the car great colour 😮

Love these cars mate she looks great looking forward to see a first drive when all sorted my dad had a 1990 G reg when I was a kid we were so gutted when it was sold 😂 have u saw paul lintfoot racing channel he's the man for fast ford's 👍

My S2 has the same left hand pull. It's called torque steer you doughnut. I run 200+ bhp just for giggles...@turbotechics.

You might want to have a quick look behind and under the battery, they used to rust very badly under there

I do love an RS Turbo, especially if its got a dump valve which by the sound of it yours has.

How much did you pay

Funny. It's the green sensor for the for thermostat housing

Why do you never show your face on your clips properly know you from the bca days was curious

Owned 4 rs turbos late 90’s and on the oil grade, my current car E46 M3 uses 10/60, I’d keep that away from the 1.6cvh turbo engine and how’s the water cooling pipe to the turbo? I’d check that also with your heating issues as had a blocked one in the past and took ages to get to the bottom of it.

Looks crap, sounds crap. Can't beat the cars from 'Cosmic Girl' video. Proper super cars.
