Vauxhall Kadet - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Kadet - Years 1984-1991
Part: Engine
Operation: Removing the engine valve cover gasket

The valve cover is a cover that is located on the top of the engine and is connected to it via a rubber or cork gasket and has the function of preventing oil leakage. The guide shows how these covers are removable so that the valves can be accessed for adjustment. Due to the high engine temperature it can happen to these seals to break. In this case, and if you notice an oil leak, oil smell, or debris, an inspection may be required leading to the removal and replacement of the cover gasket.

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.
