Hi! Is your Puma still for sale? Am interested. Jas

Try SGS Engineering.Top quality at good price.I've brought lots of tools and gas struts for my Puma from them and always been very happy. As for wire that connects to either end of off side strut, I removed the terminals from original struts and fitted to new struts. Then soldered a connecting...

Are the Cams new? It looks like they have run as there are witness marks on the Lobes and Seal Faces? I might be interested. Regards, Jas

Steve, I had the same issue with water leaks on the door and hatch seals. I replaced the door seals with new OEM seals. The hatch seal is no longer available, so ordered a hatch seal from a Mondeo. I trimmed in length to fit the Puma. It fitted fine. I fitted all the seals with Silicone Sealent...

No worries Jason. Glad to hear you've managed to get a low mileage engine from Ian. He really is a great source of quality Puma parts at decent prices. Good luck on getting your Puma back on the road. Jas

Hi Steavie, Are you still offering the Carbon Dipped Cam Cover Service? If so I would like to have one done. Thanks, Jas

ArchB, Don't scrap gbx! I would be interested if you don't won't it. What's wrong with it?

No problem Ian. Just wondered what the difference between the analogue and digital is? Thanks, Jas

Further to this: Does anyone know the gearbox speedo speed sender gear ratio, on early and late 1.7 Puma's? I believe there were 2 different speedo speed sender gear ratios used throughout production, one was red the other brown in colour ( made of nylon ), there is a pinion gear on the layshaft...

Sorry to hijack this post! Sorry to hear your engine woes Jas, I'm sure you'll fix it mate. Ian is top bloke for Puma parts, bought engine and Gbx from Ian recently, all OK. Ian, just wanted to ask about speedo sender gear, do later engines have a different ratio? Are there any other identifying...

Yes, Burton Power sell a Aluminium Billet Oil Filler Cap. It comes either Aluminium finish or several anodised finishes. Hope this helps!

Hi, I live in West Sussex Would be up for a Puma meet

Hi, Looks like there is a few Puma devotee's in the Sussex area to make a date by the Sea, during our beautiful British Summer!!! Even if Puma's are in a state of repair, it would be good to talk cars, projects and ideas. Good hear from you all

Hi Will, I gave up on getting any replies. A Puma meet in Sussex was a idea I had just seems to be very few forum members in Sussex. I would certainly be open to any suggestions on dates, days, times and venues for a meet? Like to hear your thoughts. Jason

Hi All, Does anyone know, a source of new unused Ford IB5 Gearbox Ratios? I can source, bearings , syncro's , forks , seals , reverse gear and idler gear , layshaft and Crownwheel , but want a new set of ratios to fit into a Puma 1.7 gbx I'm reconditioning. Any help would be appreciated...

Hi Rob, Hope all is good. I would be another person who like a Croatian Steering Wheel. Looks a quality job. Count me in Cheers, Jas

Well something like that. Some more useful info on the Ford IB5 gbx, it's use in Fords product range and the ratio and FD specs: http://www.hendypower.co.uk/.../ford_engines.." onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. This is a really comprehensive list of which cars you can source ratios...

Maybe simplest solution would be a lower FD ratio, giving you lower gearing for 1st - 5th gears, then changing 5th gear ratio, to give you a higher 5th gear. These are Fiesta and Puma ratios. (copied from jason33 of zsoc) 1.25/1.4 and 1.6 Zetec S Gear Ratios were found to be as following: 1st...

http://st2000.s5.com/RatioCalculator.xls" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; This simple Excel Spread Sheet is quite useful for calculating road speeds, dependent on gear ratio, FD ( CWP ) and tyre diameter. As far as what Ford IB5 gbx internals will fit in a Puma IB5 casing, any from...

The IB5 being a improved B5 transverse gbx. GETRAG ironed out the in service failings of the B5 gbx design. The IB5 maincase was strengthened ( extra case strengthening webs ), eliminating the torsional loads exerted on the main case through the drivetrain and bearings, causing the case to...
