Fiat Punto S 1998 on a T plate
Guys
Could someone tell me the handbrake adjustment procedure on one of these cars. Currently I'm on maximum travel on the lever.
Cheers

You'll need new shoes, they self adjust in the drums, but the ratchets are notorious for stripping. Unfortunately they only come with the shoes.
and good luck with it.
my 95 punto has had new cables, new shoes and new drums and the damn thing still rolls down small inclines.

They all do that sir ;-)
Thanks for the info guys. Doesn't instill me with any confidence.
Pig of a job then I presume. Any pointers that would help ease the pain?
Cheers
No, they're easy enough to fit, they just don't work, that's all.
