I have a 95 FTO GPX I got it about a week ago...

What fuel to use, Premium unleaded of course, but some have said BP Gold?

Second being a used car it has a few minor thing in need of attention, is there a mechanic in Perth that is better that another for FTO for service and few bugs?

Third one of the minor things is that I do not have lights for the instrument (speedo, taco etc) in think it may be a fuse any ideas what it could be and anyone know which fuse is which, my Japanese is not up to scratch hehehe

Hiya!

> What fuel to use

Yep, I'd suggest running it on the BP Ultimate 98 fuel. It's as close as you'll get to the Japanese domestic 100RON the engine ECU was mapped for...


> is there a mechanic in Perth that is
> better that another for FTO

Crockenberg Motors in Welshpool. 9358 0302. He's done heaps of FTO work over the last 3 years...


> I do not have lights for the instrument (speedo, taco etc)

One of the things they are supposed to do for Aussie compliance is add a dimmer dial or switch somewhere. Is there a rather dodgy looking knob thingy sticking out of the drivers side footwell upper kick panel? If so, give it a twirl and see if it's just dimmed down to nothing! Smile Worth a shot, anyway, hehe.

I'll have a look at home for the manual with the fuses in it... Watch this space.
