Here are the solutions for the increasingly high fuel consumption of Ford Escort: 1. Regular maintenance: Perform regular maintenance every 6,000 to 10,000 kilometers to reduce the accumulation of carbon deposits in the engine; choose gas stations with good fuel quality when refueling to prevent the intake manifold walls from becoming rough, which can affect the intake efficiency and mixture quality, leading to increased carbon deposits. 2. Regular carbon deposit cleaning: Conduct periodic carbon deposit cleaning every 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers, such as using drip cleaning, foam cleaning, hydrogen-oxygen decarbonization machines, or manual disassembly cleaning. 4. Regular spark plug replacement: The purpose of regularly replacing spark plugs is to use the electric spark generated by high voltage to ignite the air-fuel mixture. If the spark plugs are damaged, the ignition energy will decrease, causing uneven combustion of the mixture, which slows down acceleration and increases fuel consumption. 5. Frequently check tire pressure and tire wear: Frequently monitor tire pressure and tire wear. If the tire pressure is too low, the friction between the tires and the ground will increase, leading to higher resistance and increased fuel consumption. The normal tire pressure is around 2.5 bar, and it can be slightly reduced in summer.

How to Repair Scratches on the Windshield?

Here are the methods to deal with scratches on the car: 1. Hairline scratches: For hairline scratches, polishing or applying a rubbing compound is usually sufficient to remove them. Simply wiping gently can make the scratches disappear. 2. Light scratches: For light scratches, just prepare a tube of toothpaste. Toothpaste is very effective for shallow scratches that haven't damaged the car's primer. Especially for marks left by another vehicle's paint during a scrape or adhesive residue from stickers, most can be completely wiped off. 3. Moderate to deep scratches: Moderate and deep scratches cannot be repaired by polishing. For small dents not exceeding 5mm, they can be leveled with filler putty before repainting.
