How do you replace the timing belt of the Ford Fiesta?

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Timing belt

The operation of replacing the timing belt on the Ford Fiesta is carried out by accessing the left side of the engine block: here it will be possible to unscrew the nuts that fix the central pins of the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys. In this way, the tension of the belt will be reduced and it will be possible to remove it from its housing: after the old belt has been removed, it will be possible to insert the new one around the pulleys, which must be brought back into phase. After installation, the nuts can be reinserted, bringing the belt back to the correct tension.
