    is there such thing as 2002 focus 1.6 diesel?  1.6 diesel started about 2005 I think.   I had a 1.6 diesel fiesta (2007) which started cutting out occasionally (particularly on sharp left bends oddly). I replaced the fuel filter and that fixed it (the fuel filter had been in there for about 120k miles which is well over the recommended mileage)

    There was a 1.6 petrol in the 2002 Focus, but not a 1.6 diesel.

    You might want to update your profile details to show the right year and the engine as a 1.6 TDCI, it will help avoid confusion when asking for help.
