Mitsubishi Pajero - Video tutorial

Model: Mitsubishi Pajero MK 2, V20 - Years 1991-1999
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Mitsubishi Pajero V20 2.8 timing chain inspection

On the second series Mitsubishi Pajero, called V20, the 2.8 diesel engine is equipped with a chain distribution system; this system, unlike the classic belt, does not require any periodic maintenance but rather an inspection; generally the replacement may be necessary not before a distance of 250,000 km; in the vicinity of this distance, however, it is necessary to start checking the state of the chain to make sure that it is not lengthening; the first symptom of elongation is the noisiness of the chain itself as the tooth hits the sliding guides: to inspect, remove the tappet cover and check the tension of the chain and of the relative tensioner.

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.
