  • In this video I'm getting the MK7 1.0L EcoBoost back on the road. I need to be able to drive it around to see whether or not it's running properly since the engine rebuild. But I can't drive it on the road until it's got an M.o.T so I'm getting the body panels and headlights patched up and reinstalled, giving the brakes and suspension a once over and doing something about the horrendous exhaust the previous owner fitted!
    Stay tuned to the end of the video to see if my CoPart Fiesta passes or fails!
    I want to say a huge THANK YOU to Kingbolen for sending me out their BF200 brake fluid tester. To get yours click the link below and enter code: MIBF200 at checkout for a discount! kingbolentool.com/collections...
    Be sure to check out the other tools they have to offer as well at kingbolentool.com
    I also want to thank MS Performance Breakers for supplying the exhaust system - they always have a great selection of cars/parts in stock. Check out their Facebook page here: / ms-performance-breaker...
    And thank you to Roger who collected the exhaust for me from South Wales, Roger runs Swift LED Conversions - covering the MK6 Fiesta facelift and pre-facelift interiors and soon to be offing MK7 conversions as well! profile.php?...

    Have you checked that the lower seals on the fuel injectors are not leaking? I'm not convinced that you did not stretch them when installing.

    • @MendItModIt
      @MendItModIt  Рік тому

      No leaks or fuel smells at all so they’re all good. You have to stretch the seals, it’s the only want to get them on. The tool just makes it quicker and easier but they’ll still stretch I guess 🤔
