Just shows how a coincidence could have had you blaming an innocent mechanic for causing damage through no fault of their own.

hey i have a similar-ish problem.

I dropped my 99 ford focus to a garage the other day. They told me it was the fuel pump so they got a replacement but it still wont start. They said there isnt any pressure. Does anyone know what this is down to? and will it be expensive ha!

Whats the serial number of the radio. It should be on the top of the casing probably starting with a M

No expert but sounds like there's some blockage in the fuel system...

Once I managed to get the radio out with the help of 2 coat hangers I found the correct code. The code put in the book was wrong by one digit.
Saga ends here I hope.

A Focus should be 10w40 or 15w40. (Owning a Focus for 2 years with many oil changes)

Two years of owning a focus and you have'nt read the handbook because Ford recommend 5w30.
