How to disassemble the float inside the tank of a Fiat 500R

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this interesting video, we see how to dismantle the float inside the tank of a vintage Fiat 500R. We know that the tank is located in the front hood: with a 7mm key, we remove the bolts around it, then unscrew the clamp to remove the tube that goes into the tank. We remove the float inside to clean it thoroughly and then reassemble it inside: the original pieces must be preserved. The cleaning also includes cleaning the float support tube, using a wire and compressed air. We reassemble it by putting back the bolts and the outlet tube, tighten the clamp, and the job is done.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
