Is Gulf gasoline a good gas to use in my 2010 Ford Focus, or would you recommend a different brand?

I wish to keep my new car running at peak performance, and good reliability. Is there better or worse gasoline brands for my new 2010 Ford Focus. It needs 87 octaine.|||Gasoline is a commodity, like 2% milk, enriched flour, pine 2x4's, staples... The government defines how these items are made, gasoline has different formulas for winter, summer, and 20 other factors. I have heard some people swear for or against certain brands. My experience is that occasionally a certain individual gas station might not take proper precautions to protect their tanks from water or contamination. And I have gotten some "bad gas", but it has happened like twice in my life. Usually a bottle of 'heat', or something to rid your system of moisture, helps. And a dirty little secret..sometimes several different brands will buy from the same supplier. Go buy the cheapest gas you can find, and the lowest octane, your ford focus will be totally happy, it does not care what you pay.|||Gas is gas, buy the cheapest you can find.

Can i swap out a manual headlights control in a 1997 ford taurus gl to an autolamp control?

I have a 1997 ford taurus gl that has the manual headlight control (when you have to turn the lights on manually) and i noticed some models have autolamp. Is there a possibility you can swap out a manual headlight control to an autolamp one? If you can does it require extra wiring? Thanks for your answers.|||It would require a dash harness, as there is a light sensor involved in the circuit as well. But there are Ford kits, as well as aftermarket kits, to do this much more easily and cheaply.


The Ford kit takes about 20 minutes to install, and works well.|||Yes you can It might take a little time , You will have to replace the switch and maybe the harness and the eye censer that goes on dash , hope this helps.

Why has the paint come off my Ford badge?

I have a Ford Ka, and I recently noticed that the blue paint had come off the Ford logo badge on the boot, with a little bit of a trace left. It literally seemed to happen overnight! Does anyone know how it could have happened?


And does anyone know how I can get it fixed? Do I have to buy a new badge or can it be re-sprayed? How much will it cost?


Thanks.|||Not to sure about the new ford cars, but in the past the back of the badge was painted blue. Some times the paint can peel off resulting in it looking very tatty.


You have two options:- Buy a new badge from ford (拢10), or re-paint the badge your self. One advantage of re-painting the badge is that you don't have to paint it the same blue colour. You could for example paint it the same colour as your car.


You will need to remove the badge from the car, my advice is to try and twist the badge, do this clockwise then counter clockwise. Eventually the glue behind the badge will brake and the badge can be removed. Clean off the old paint 600 grade wet and dry on a flat surface, then paint it with some paint from halfords etc.


Ja.|||The badge is not"painted". It is separating internally %26amp; will need to be replaced.

What is the release date of the Ford Fiesta in North America?

I've been looking around for the release date for the Ford Fiesta in the US and Canada. All I can find is they are using a "2011" model designation, but claim arrival in "early 2010". I've driven this Fiesta model in Europe and it's incredible to drive, cheap to run and the European ones were decent quality. If Ford can get one out in time then I'm buying one!|||Early 2010. Thats all they're saying.
