Operation: Spark plug replacement instructions

First of all, it is suggested to carry out this maintenance with a cold engine in order to be able to handle the elements in question in absolute safety. Once the cover has been removed, dust the ignition coil seat with compressed air to prevent residual dirt from ending up in the cylinders. Then disconnect the sockets from the ignition coils, unscrew the relative fixing screws and remove the coils complete with pipette. Apply the special anti-oxidant lubricant in the pipettes, dust the spark plug seat and proceed with disassembly; apply the new spark plugs without exceeding the tightening torque and reassemble the pipettes.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
