Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Petrol filter
Operation: Fuel filter replacement instructions

Unlike diesel vehicles where the fuel filter tends to get dirty much more frequently, in petrol engines the replacement of the filter does not have to be replaced so frequently but it is clear that a new filter will guarantee better efficiency; the filter is not located in the engine compartment but under the car floor, near the right rear wheel (passenger side); then lift the car on special car stands, intercept the position of the filter, open the safety catches of the piping connections to the filter and unhook them to free the filter and remove it from its seat; apply the support bracket to the new filter and install it orienting it according to the direction of the fuel flow indicated by the arrow.

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.
