bobbyboy94 - Hey, how are you? My Territory is the same as yours, 06 Ghia 7 seater. I've had my LPG system just over 4years now. I always had the spare wheel back in the boot (3rd row seat down). I never had to use the spare tyre. So the pass few months i decided to pop in Repco and buy the tyre gel repair kit with the 12v air compressor, Its a seal kit for puncture tyres. Small package, easy to use and save alot of boot space. And always check your tyres every 3 months (tread wear & tyre pressure).
Hope this helps. |

[QUOTE=AU GONE BAD]umm seems you have just about done most of what i can think of
i mean coil check ! leads check ! spark plugs check! umm only thing i can suggest is maybe blown intake gasket but ya said ya did the head on it so its very highly unlikely maybe ecu running bad or dirty injectors or even a eng crank sensor in some fords they had a airflow meter that might also be worth a shot !!![/ Cheers for the advice.i will check it out when I get home and get back to you |

Ah! Here I am! Navigating a new site was never my forte. Yep, I'm a newbie, not only to this forum but also to Ford. I figured at 67 I'd better get one before I cark it. I've had just about everything else. Mine is an oldie but a goodie... a '93 XG XR6 ute. My older bro has been a Ford man since Adam was in shorts but I was never convinced. Now I am. It's a very pleasant car to drive. I live on the Mid North Coast so I travel the new Pacific Hwy quite a bit, and the ute just sails along effortlessly.
But it's a tub ute and I need a trayback. I just bought a slide-on camper. So who knows what's next! Meanwhile, g'day and thanks for the welcome. |

Hello forum. Been lurking for a while and used the forum to help pick my new (used) Territory.
2006 Ghia in black (7 seater) I wanted to introduce my self and to thank everyone who has contributed. Without you I would have had a hard time diagnosing my central locking fault, installation of my Parrot bluetooth unit and other minor issues. Had the car for about 6 months now and love it. Tows my boat without issues and great for our expanding family. Once again thanks and I promise to be more active now I've had some time with the girl. Shannon |

Hi everyone.
Been here for awhile but prefer to just browse the threads. Always been a Ford man and have had various Fairmonts over the years. Since 03, have had a XWGT in the garage. |

Gday all, thought I'd drop in and introduce myself.
As the name suggests, I'm from over the other side of the ditch, living in Auckland, and have been a Ford fan since my dad had a '65 Fairlane compact (new). These days I've been rolling around in an 2.6 Audi A4, but I have a plan to drop a small block Ford in it and create a Fordi - just because I can, however I'll have to buy the wife another car first I'm also a huge bike nut and currently have a SV1000S and two FZR 750 / 1000 race bikes, which seem to be staying in the shed more and more since the last incident of talent exceeding ability (I fell off - again...) Anyway, thanks to every one for jointly building a great site, and I've got no doubt I'll be dropping in once in a while and either asking obvious questions or putting my 2c in where it's not needed |
