Classic Ford Car Tuning & Diagnostics
Classic Ford cars are known for their character, enjoyable driving experience and traditional British engineering. To keep a classic Ford running as it should, its carburettors, ignition system and engine settings need to be in suitable condition and correctly adjusted.
With 47 years of classic car tuning experience, I provide specialist tuning and diagnostic services for classic Ford models, including the Escort, Capri and Granada & Fiesta.
Using Crypton CMT 2000 equipment alongside practical experience, I can investigate running problems and carry out appropriate tuning adjustments based on your car’s specification and condition.
Specialist tuning for classic Ford engines
Many classic Ford models use carburettor and distributor-based systems that require a careful, methodical approach to tuning.
I can help investigate common concerns such as uneven idling, difficult starting, hesitation, misfires and poor running. Where appropriate, this includes checking ignition timing, assessing carburettor operation and balancing twin carburettors.
The aim is to identify problems where possible and tune the engine correctly, rather than make adjustments without first understanding its condition.

Crypton diagnostics for classic Ford engines
The Crypton CMT 2000 helps investigate ignition performance and engine running concerns. It can provide useful diagnostic information when a classic Ford is difficult to start, misfires or does not run smoothly.
Where faults are identified, I can discuss the findings and any additional repairs or replacement parts that may be required before the engine can be tuned accurately.
