While I was in Toronto, went to a store I've never heard of called Performance Improvements. Told him I heard about how they adapt Accel-brand coils designed for the Ford Escort SPI to the Focus SPI. At the end of his shift, the guy was extremely proficient not only pulling up the part numbers etc for the Accel, but another one for MSD which is cheaper, and has the spacers and longer bolts needed to fit the Ford Focus SPI. Didn't have wires though. I grabbed a set of NGK 'Iridium' or something plugs from CTC.
note: The MSD and Accel coil use sparkplug wires with snap connecters like used on the Escort. The Focus ones are regular slip on ones and won't fit.
Needing wires NOW, I went to Talf's scrapyard in Brighton and grabbed two sets of stock Escort wires. (Do they put the dates on them? One said 1993, the other 1997) Install wasn't a problem. Needed a 7mm and 8mm socket and a 8mm wrench. Needed to pull the air-cleaner.
After install, no codes came back and the low-end power is friggin' amazing from what I was use to. Even the exhaust sounds way more crisp.
* #2 spark plug wire broke in the spark plug boot during removal. -possible it was the cause.
* Haven't taken it for a test ride on the highway yet, but feel confident.
