[censored]! Ford did it again in their Fiesta Owners manual. They did the same in other manuals. On page 275 - replace spark plugs every 100,000 miles. Page 279 - replace plugs every 60,000 miles. Says to replace timing belt every 150,000 miles. I bet somewhere else it says to change it sooner.
The manual for our 99 3rd generation Tracer said to change the manual transmission fluid every 160,000 miles. After it started making noise I found at an obscure place in the manual to change it every 80,000 miles. Unlike the earlier Tracer's that were dogs the 3rd gen was a really great car. Too bad Fords recommendations ruined the 5 speed manual transmission.
Looks like if you are going by a Ford User Manual you better read all 300 pages before something goes wrong.
