I was assuming it was a Mk2 Fiesta box.
The 75W90 he found from Halfords will be fine for that.
It specifies it's compatible with GL4 and GL5 so there can't be a significant difference between them.

I also thought it was a fiesta (title!). If it is a fiesta the Ford number is 5015545 or A86SX 2C9008 AA for 1Lt bottles. If it's a type 9 the consensus is 75/90 GL*4 not 5. *GL4 is semi-synthetic, GL5 is Synthetic and the additives will (apparently) ensure the synchro hubs don't grip enough to work.
My type 9 took 1.9L

    Type 9 is a RWD gearbox.

    I thought this was a Mk2 Fiesta ?
    That would be a BC or possibly a B5 gearbox.
    I think you will need around 3.5 litres, only fill it to the
    height of the filler hole (or strictly speaking a bit lower on
    later boxes).
    But, unless the gearbox has been put on it's side with the drive
    shaft hole down there will still be a lot of oil in the gearbox.

    HI all.

    I've found the type I need, now I have another question.

    How much do you think I'd need to buy? 2L?

    I lost all the oil, it's a type 9.

    Thanks.

        Subject say it all really.

        In the middle of an engine change and all the gearbox oil leaked.

        I've never needed to buy some before so I've no idea what
        kind I am looking for.

        What kind do I need?

        Thanks in advance.
