Fiat Punto - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Punto 176, MK 1 - Years 1993-1999
Part: Spark plugs
Operation: How to fit the spark plugs in your car

The spark plugs in a car are very important components of the ignition system, and are part of the ignition parts of the internal combustion engine. To always be as efficient as possible, the spark plugs must be cleaned every 10,000 km and replaced every 20,000. To understand which spark plugs should be fitted to your car, you need to check the user manual. To change them, you must first disconnect the high voltage cables that connect them to the distributor and clean the area around the spark plugs. The spark plugs must be unscrewed using the special wrench and before installing the new ones, check that there is the right distance between the electrodes.

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.
