Fiat 124 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 124 MK 1 - Years 1966-1985
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How do you replace the timing belt of the Fiat 124?

In order to replace the timing belt of the Fiat 124, you need to open the hood so that you can access the components located inside the engine compartment. In the front part of the engine block, you will find the belt, which needs to be removed from its housing by loosening the central nut of the tensioner pulley. This will reduce the tension of the belt, allowing it to be removed and replaced with a new one. After installing the new belt, you can close the engine compartment and verify that everything is functioning correctly.

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.
