Citroen Zx - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Zx MK 1 - Years 1991-1998
Part: Engine
Operation: Replacement of automobile manifold gasket

The exhaust manifold connects a part of the car to the muffler. Its function is to connect the gases produced by the combustion of fuel from the cylinders to the exhaust pipe. By replacing the old manifold with a newer one, it is also possible to have an increase in engine power, without forgetting that any modification to the engine remains "outlawed" and a modified car cannot circulate on the road. Replacing it is not a particularly complicated maneuver and you can also do it alone. The manifold is connected to the muffler by means of some clamps and bolts that must be removed in order to remove the muffler. Once the bolts at the inlet of the manifold tube have also been unscrewed, the manifold with the relative gaskets can be removed.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
