Escort Juddering/Kangarooing - MP74
Ford Escort problems - It is a 96 N 1.6 Zetec. Problem gradually getting worse. This problem is Hesitation/Loss of power on acceleration - flooring the accelerator pedal does seem to get through this. It is a intermittent problem but now getting worse. Over the course of this problem, have changed the Cat, Fuel filter, Fuel tank, Spark plugs and changed the Lambda Sensor. Without hooking it up for diagnosis, does anyone have any other idea what the problem could be or is diagnosis the only answer?

As this is only intermittent, would diagnosis pick it up?

can't help you with finding a solution i'm afraid, but i had exact same problem, started just when engine was cold, but then did it all the time. was told it was just the zetec engine of 96/97, (mine was a p reg) apparently the newer ones didn't do it..
good luck sorting it out.
