Operation: Disassembly of the Opel Astra fuel pump.

This brief guide will show us the main steps on how to dismantle and replace the fuel pump of the Opel Astra. First, we open the rear doors and start removing the backseat; then we remove the plastic cover to access the fuel pump, as shown in the video. At this point, we disconnect the fuel lines and the electrical connector of the float, finally unscrewing the pump ring to remove it from the tank; we replace and install the new original fuel pump, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
