The procedure for replacing the timing belt on the Ford Fiesta involves accessing the left side of the engine block: here, loosen the nuts that secure the central pins of the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys, along with the tensioner pulley. This will reduce the tension on the belt, allowing it to be removed from its housing: once the old belt is removed, fit the new one around the pulleys, which must then be timed correctly.

After installation, re-secure the nuts to restore tension.
