Vauxhall Kadet - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Kadet - Years 1984-1991
Part: Engine
Operation: Camshaft oil seal replacement

The camshaft oil seal is also present in the emery series gasket kit; before inserting it must be thoroughly lubricated using clean engine oil. At this point, align the oil seal to its seat, taking care to make it enter perfectly perpendicular, avoiding that it gets stuck on one side, causing any deformation during insertion, which would obviously affect the seal. Once the oil seal has been replaced, assemble the toothed pulley by tightening the relative fixing pins with the torque wrench and taking care to align the references of the phase before installing the timing belt.

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.
