Hi guys! First post

Previously owned a Fiesta Mk6 which needed little maintenance other than changing a lightbulb.

Now have a '97 Fiesta Si which I love to pieces so far but know very little about.

What manual do I need to buy? Seems like such a simple question but I tried forum and google searches and no definite answers - do I need a manual specifically for the Si or will a Fiesta manual for the right year do?

I also have a more urgent question, being which oil do I need? As mine is now low haha.

Thanks and nice to be here.

5w30 for the oil and do you need a service manual or an owners manual?
ive got an owners manual if you want it but it does have writing in the back

Thanks for the oil!

Owners manual would be great, and I don't need it to be pristine

I would like a service manual too, but that isn't as urgent. I can't seem to find one - maybe I am searching for the wrong thing?

Is it the 1.4 you have being a 97 model?
Check ebay as iv a few in the past there.

Btw welcome to the site, hope you enjoy it.
Get a members thread going with some pics up.

1997 would mean its a mk4 not a mk3.

Welcome anyhow
