Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the fuel filter on Ford Kuga

The guide shows how to replace the fuel filter of the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi. To carry out this operation it is necessary to remove the plastic protection of the motor. The fuel filter is located on the left side of the engine. Remove the electrical connector and the three 8 mm bolts on the edge of the element and remove the metal protection. After arranging a rag to catch any fuel that may come out, disconnect the two fluid lines. Using a 27mm wrench, unscrew the filter dome and remove the piece being careful not to spill any fuel. Draw in fuel to prevent overflow during installation. Fit the new cartridge and gasket and put everything back in place. Run the engine for a few seconds to fill the filter.

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.
