If you need to replace the spark plugs, the first recommendation is to let the engine cool down; at this point unscrew the ignition coil fixing screw which is integrated into the pipette, disconnect the plug and extract the pipette itself; even before unscrewing the spark plug, it is suggested to blow in correspondence with its seat to eliminate any residual dirt that could end up in the cylinder; then unscrew the spark plug and proceed with the installation of the new one by applying some grease to the copper in correspondence with the thread without exceeding the tightening torque and then apply the pipette and connect the socket to the ignition coil;

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.
