Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Spark plugs
Operation: Replacement instructions for spark plug cables

Wear and damage to the spark plug cables is a defect that generally concerns older generation cars, in any case a leakage defect on the part of the cable can compromise regular combustion, compromising both engine performance and fuel consumption. First of all, it is suggested to carry out this maintenance with a cold engine for obvious reasons, then remove the plastic cover from the tappet cover to access the spark plugs, unhook the cap from the spark plug one at a time and follow the cable to the ignition switch and replace the old cable with the new one; repeat the same operation for all the candles.

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.
