Model: Fiat 126 MK 1 - Years 1972-1991
Part: Carburetor
Operation: How to clean the Fiat 126 carburetor

If problems occur when starting the engine or acceleration is slow and irregular, then it is likely that the carburetor may have become soiled as to not guarantee correct preparation and delivery of the mixture; in any case, cleaning the carburetor requires great care and attention, especially in the reassembly and adjustment phase (keep in mind the number of turns of the adjustment screws); once the carburetor has been removed from its seat, proceed immediately with a first external wash (it is advisable to use petrol and protect your hands with nitrile quanta) in order to eliminate any residual dirt that could enter the carburetor body same during disassembly; therefore continue with the disassembly of the various elements, each of which must be washed before being reassembled: it is essential to unscrew the nozzles and blow into their respective seats as well as into the passage lights of the nozzles themselves (which is not shown in the video) before reassemble everything.

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.
