2008 Ford Ka Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2008 Ford Ka covers one engine and one body style, the 1.6L inline-four (97 cu in) with single overhead cam and natural aspiration in the two-door hatchback, offered as Base and Equipado trims. The manual's procedures, specifications and torque values were written for that engine and hatchback and do not change between the two trims, and its wiring diagrams and diagnostics describe the shared electrical system. That makes it one reference for both versions of the car rather than two.
