Replace the spark plugs on your Ford Fiesta if you are experiencing ignition problems. To replace the spark plugs, pull the lever to open the engine compartment located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front bonnet.

Disconnect the coils located (behind the engine soundproofing panel) in the cylinder head, grasp the coil with your hands and twist it to remove it from the head. Use a socket spanner to unscrew the spark plugs (remove them from the head) and replace them with new spark plugs, inserting them into the cylinder head with the socket spanner.

Start the car and check its operation.
