How to remove the coolant reservoir? We see the disassembly of the pan in the engine compartment of a Ford Fiesta. We lift the front hood to access the refrigeration tray. We empty the tank from the liquid present, with a socket wrench or screwdriver unscrew the tightening pins of the same, disconnect the tank circulation pipes and the electrical clamp. We mount a new tank with attached pipes and pins, top up the new refrigeration liquid in the cooling circuit. We use coolant suitable for Ford Fiesta cars.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
