How to Repair a Tyre Puncture on a Ford Puma

Model: Ford Puma MK 1 - Years 2019-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Today, you will learn how to use the emergency tyre repair kit in case of a puncture on a Ford Puma. The repair kit can be purchased on Amazon or at auto parts stores. Some vehicles come with a kit that is stored in the boot under a cover. Inside the kit, you will find: an electric air compressor to inflate the tyre, a can of sealing compound, tubes, and connectors to attach the can and compressor to the tyre. There is a sticker on the compressor with instructions for using the kit. To use the kit, turn off the engine, engage the handbrake, and remove the valve cap from the punctured tyre, then connect the flexible hose from the can to the valve. Connect the compressor cable to the car's cigarette lighter socket and start the engine. Activate the compressor by pressing the ON button; allow the tyre to inflate for 5 to 10 minutes. If the pressure is reached, turn off the compressor and disconnect everything. If it does not reach the minimum threshold of 1.8 bar in 10 minutes, the damage is severe, and you should not continue but replace the tyre with the spare wheel.
