Great experience from start to finish. Always kept upto date on progress and time.
Great communication and very happy with the work done (it was long overdue for several things)

Hopefully our FAQ section has answered some of the questions you may have about getting your car to start. However, if you would like more information, we have the produced the following guide to help you understand the subject in greater detail.
There are a variety of reasons for a Ford not starting as there are many systems which effect the mechanism for starting an engine.
If your Ford won’t start it can be extremely irritating as there may be no way of knowing what the problem is. You may have a minor issue that you could resolve with a small amount of maintenance or it could be a major problem that requires a professionally trained mechanic to diagnose and repair.
If your Ford is not starting the best thing to do is get a mechanic to come out to where you live and take a look at the vehicle which you can do by entering your details in the form above.
If you would like to learn what the problem may be, read on!
No start on a rainy dayIf your Ford seems to be working fine on a dry day but won’t start when it’s raining, it’s likely that the distributer cap has moisture inside. Fortunately, this is not disastrous and will not require a huge amount of repair work from a mechanic. All that is involved in the service is using solvent to evaporate moisture from the unit.
If you think you can carry out this job and know where your distribution cap is, it is essential that you keep the following points in mind.
This is the easiest job to self-diagnose and complete without the help of a mechanic however the following issues should be referred onto a professional should you see these symptoms in your own Ford.
There is no way of knowing what could be causing you an issue so it is essential that you have a mechanic assess your car asap. If yourFord battery has died this will be an easier problem to resolve as all that is required is a jump from another vehicle.
If you need to jump start your Ford due to a dead battery, follow these instructions. However, don’t forget to have your vehicle checked by a mechanic even if a jump start works.
If the engine starts, brilliant! Take a drive around as this will recharge the battery.
vIf it doesn’t, go back and make sure the cables are all attached properly and let the other car run for five minutes or so.
If the Ford still won’t start, then it is likely your car has a major issue that you should get a mechanic to look as soon as possible.
