Hi everyone...  I wonder if anybody could give me some advice please...

          I have a 1994 escort diesel 1.8 bonus van and was wondering whether it would be capable of pulling my abi award globestar..  I know that the unladen weight of my caravan is 1150 kg plus 75kg for load.   I have also had a search around and cannot find the van's tyre pressure's when pulling the caravan...  Any help or advice is genuinely appreciated..

        Thanks again, tooty

On the face of it I'd say don't bother. I use one in my day to day work, its gutless. For some reason the earlier 1.6 was a far more pokey lump then the 1.8.
