Mazda Mpv - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Mpv LW - Years 1999-2006
Part: Pump
Operation: Water pump replacement

Open the front hood and remove the plastic engine cover: the water pump is located on the right side of the engine (looking from the front), right next to the battery; when starting the motor, you may notice an eccentric rotation of the pump pulley, a sign that the bearing or the shaft support bushing must have yielded. Then remove the old belt and proceed with the disassembly of the pump fixing pins in order to remove it; then apply the new pump and its gasket by tightening the fixing pins. Install a new belt and top up the coolant level.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
