Video tutorial

Removing the fuel pump on a Ford Focus MK1 is not an immediate operation; we have two alternatives, each with its pros and cons. To access the pump, you can go under the car and remove the entire tank with all its difficulties, or, as shown in the attached video, cut the sheet metal right near it. By removing the rear seat, you can locate the pump from the pipe that protrudes from the small hole.

You need to cut around this hole, exactly as shown in the video, being careful not to cause damage. Once access is created, you can remove the pump as per standard procedure.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
