Mercedes Classe E - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe E W210 - Years 1995-2002
Part: Injectors
Operation: Fuel system cleaning instructions

If abnormal smoke comes out of the exhaust pipe, it is likely that the combustion of the diesel fuel is not optimal due to inefficiency of the injectors which may have become dirty and therefore are unable to pulverize the fuel optimally (it may also depend on the dirty diesel filter) . Generally it is possible to add additive to the diesel fuel directly in the tank but if you want to obtain a more effective result, you can also think of feeding the engine with the additive alone in order to pass pure additive into the injectors to perform an even more thorough cleaning . To carry out this cleaning it is necessary to disconnect the fuel supply and return pipes, insert the delivery one directly into the additive can and the recovery one in a bottle: once this by-pass has been made, start the engine by accelerating a little (it is suggested also to replace the diesel filter) and letting the system drain.

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.
