Editing Ford CVH engine (section)

==1.3==
The 1.3&nbsp;L CVH was introduced in the 1980 European [[Ford Escort (Europe)|Escort]] and used in the [[Ford Orion|Orion]] and [[Ford Fiesta (second generation)|Fiesta]] from 1983 to 1986. Bore and stroke are {{cvt|80x64.5|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}, for a displacement of {{cvt|1296|cc|1|abbr=on}}. The 1.3&nbsp;L was to be offered in the North American Escort, but testing found it to be unacceptably underpowered while Ford was unable to make it meet emissions requirements.<ref name=RT82>{{cite journal |editor-last=Hogg |editor-first=Tony |title=1981 Buyer's Guide |journal=Road & Track's Road Test Annual & Buyer's Guide 1981 |issue=January–February 1981 |page=97 |ref=81bg}}</ref> US production plans were scrapped just months before full-scale production was scheduled to start.

For the facelifted [[Ford Escort (Europe)#Fourth generation (1986–1992)|fourth generation European Escort]] of 1986, this CVH was replaced by a 1.3&nbsp;L Valencia engine in entry-level models, while higher trim level models used the 1.4&nbsp;L CVH described below.
