Vauxhall Vectra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Vectra MK 2, Vectra B - Years 1995-2002
Part: Throttle body
Operation: How to remove the throttle body on an Opel Vectra

We start by depressurizing the fuel system which has fuel inside it under pressure. After that we can start the disassembly starting from the inlet air sleeve. To remove the throttle body we will have to remove the electrical connector on the ECU cable, four tubes positioned on the side facing the passenger compartment, taking care not to damage them during the process. To which it will be enough to unscrew the four screws on the upper side that anchor the whole body on the motor power supply. At this point you can carry out a thorough inspection and evaluate whether to replace or thoroughly clean the piece.

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.
