Toyota Mr2 - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Mr2 W20, MK 2 - Years 1990-2000
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Car positioning on stands

If the car has to be positioned on stands, first of all check the capacity of the stands themselves, or if they are able to withstand the weight of the car. At this point, if you have to position the stand at the rear, make sure you have engaged the first gear before lifting the car to prevent it from moving during lifting; then place a jack in correspondence with one of the reinforced ribs under the door sill, raise the car high enough to always position the stand in correspondence with a rib and slowly lower the jack until the vehicle rests on the stand.

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.
