To carry out the replacement of the timing belt on a Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost, you need to loosen the screws that secure the front right wheel of the car, which will need to be removed along with the corresponding wheel arch. Once this has been removed, you can loosen the nut that secures the tensioner pulley located to the left of the engine block, completely removing it to reduce the tension on the belt.

Once the belt has been removed from its corresponding pulleys, you can insert the new one and check that everything works.
