Saab 900 - Video tutorial

Model: Saab 900 MK 2 - Years 1993-1998
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Remove rust from the bodywork of your car

There are many reasons why rust can form on a car body. The small rust spot if not treated immediately properly expands over time. To carry out this operation it is advisable to wear safety equipment, ie gloves, protective goggles, a mask. During the work some paint will be lifted which must not come into contact with your eyes. The correct solution will be to cover the surface of the entire car on a regular basis. The paint around the rusty part can be removed through the use of a sander that allows you to adjust the speed of the exercise and an angle grinder where the layer of rust is very thick. Spray paint purchased and used should be left to dry overnight.

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.
