Part: Spark plugs
Operation: How to replace the spark plugs and spark plug wires of the Fiat Punto 1.2 8V

Today we will see, in this short and simple guide, the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the spark plugs and spark plug cables from the Fiat Punto 1.2 8V. First of all, we open the bonnet of our car and begin to disassemble and remove the air filter box, disconnecting it from the throttle body; then we go to disconnect the spark plug wires, using a socket wrench with extension to unscrew and remove the spark plugs, as shown in the video. At this point we replace the cables and install the new spark plugs, of the right type and with the same pitch!

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.
