You can replace the timing belt on a Ford Kuga by lifting the car with a jack or ramp, ensuring that the front right wheel does not touch the ground. After lifting the car, loosen the bolts securing the wheel to remove it from the hub and also remove the wheel arch liner.

This will provide access to the side of the engine: the tensioner pulley can then be removed to reduce the tension on the belt. It will then be possible to extract it and position the new one: this can be tensioned again by re-inserting the pulley and checking that everything functions correctly.
