Ford Fiesta - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Fiesta Be91, Fiesta 4, MK 4, MK IV - Years 1996-2002
Part: Engine
Operation: Replacing the tappet cover gasket

Before applying the new tappet cover gasket, carefully clean the gasket seat, both on the cylinder head side and on the cover side, removing any residual dirt and encrustation that could compromise the seal of the gasket itself. Then insert the new gasket in the special groove under the cover, apply gasket mastic to the two radial ends of the camshaft, position the cover and tighten the relative fixing pins, paying attention to ensure that the gasket does not come out of its seat . Wait for the putty to dry before starting the engine.

How to reset the on-board computer of the Peugeot 208?

Resetting the Peugeot 208's on-board computer, the system called SMEG, is very simple. We can do this in case the system shows signs of malfunction, freezes, or in any other case where a restart could solve the problem. To reboot, simply hold down the two keys located in the lower left corner of the computer at the same time. After a few seconds, the SMEG system display will switch off, the Peugeot logo will appear and the start-up procedure will start. We wait patiently for the restart to complete as it may take some time.
