How to Replace the Damaged Fuel Pump on Alfa 156

Model: Alfa Romeo 156 MK 1 - Years 1997-2007
Part: Fuel pump

How do you replace the damaged fuel pump on a 156? Remove the rear seats to access the compartment dedicated to the fuel pump. Use a socket wrench to unscrew the securing screws of the metal cap, then remove it from its seat; cover the perimeter with absorbent paper to soak up any fluid leaks. Disconnect the power connectors and the fluid circulation pipes from above the pump. Unscrew the plastic nut that secures the pump in the car's tank. Extract the fuel pump from inside the car's tank. Install the new replacement pump with the necessary components. Start the Alfa 156 engine and test its operation.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
