Great video mate. I love these fiestas, very easy to service. I bet the pollen filter was black in this one too! that air filter was about five years old :(

Welcome

[@BrianBarbaGonzalez]

It looks quite accessible, what gives me the most respect is changing the spark plugs in case I leave something wrong, but I definitely want to carry out the maintenance myself, I also have to find a place where to do it because I don't have a garage :(

[@bigron26048]

Good video, but I never saw him check the gap on the spark plugs which is important. Although most new plugs come already gapped it is still a good idea to check them. Also, it would have been a good idea to put some "anti seize" on the threads of each plug.

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Good tip!

[@mlvendetta8330]

I work in a garage. We never check them. There’s no need to check for a gap nowadays unless you’re working on a motorbike really.

[@andrewkelsall6180]

Hi Replying from your comment on my last post. I have read the Haynes manual and it states when filling to set the heater to max but ensure the blower is switched off

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@andrewkelsall6180 yes my bad once car warms up then switch on blowers correct

Great video, how do you dispose of the old oil

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Ask your local garage they should take it if your alright with them thanks

[@andrewkelsall6180]

Cheers, im always worried about applying to much pressure case i break the ceramic insulation. Ive ordered a decent racthet and extension

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Take it easy don’t force it should be alright

[@andrewkelsall6180]

@@jaysworkshopgarage thankyou if i apply pressure at the top of the ratchet to keep in alignment then apply pressure on turning should be ok

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@andrewkelsall6180 Keep one hand firmly on the extension to stop the wobbling and the other hand to the bottom of the ratchet and turn slowly, Sometimes tightening ever so slightly then undoing works a treat on any stubborn tight plugs or nuts.

Hi great vid. What spray did u use to clean the oil off. Thanks

[@andrewkelsall6180]

Hiya mate The ramps you use are they reasonably priced. And when you fill the oil are you able to put some in before you start the Engine before taking off the ramps and put it on the flat?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Hi the ramps are called Rhino Ramps not sure how much they cost now I bought them many years ago (best investment trust me) and yes of course you are able to reach the oil filler cap to top up oil before reversing off the ramp and then further topping up on level ground.

[@azaz...]

great vid, may I ask what is the difference between a full service and a interim service please?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

I would say pollen filter and spark plugs

[@azaz...]

@@jaysworkshopgarage so spark plugs are NOT included on a interim service? Is that correct?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@azaz... interim service is usually just oil-oil filter & air filter and check of fluids

Hi there its that time of year for a service of my ford fiesta got a question I'm changing my coolant is it imperative that I flush the system I have brought some holts coolant flush. Secondly to avoid air in the system I just fill the system slowly ?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@andrewkelsall6180 I wouldn’t recommend coolant flush and as for air yes slow pouring and squeezing/pumping water hoses and leave hot air/fan on inside car make sure hot air blows through

fill the oil filter with oil before screwing back on, when you start the car you don't get the chatter in the engine

you can on some cars majority japanese cars as they are mostly screw in directly under the engine but with this car if you was to do that the oil will spill out because of the location of the filter
