Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to disassemble and clean the distributor on a Fiat 500

Let's see in this video how to remove and clean the distributor on an old model Fiat 500. We use a screwdriver to separate the plastic of the distributor, then, we unscrew all the tightening screws of the small pieces on it. After having disassembled the screws we are going to extract the previously disassembled pieces. Finally, we check the individual disassembled pieces (we separate the intact and damaged pieces), carefully clean them and assemble everything (with the new pieces). We reassemble the piece at the end of the assembly in the engine compartment of our Fiat 500 and get ready to test it.

How to reset the service in the Opel Antara?

As we can see in this tutorial, resetting the service in the Opel Antara is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, of course, we must have completed all the planned maintenance work. We start by inserting the key but leaving it in the initial position, after which we keep the accelerator pedal fully depressed and at the same time turn on the instrument panel, not the engine. At this point, we release the accelerator and press it 3 consecutive times, always all the way. We then restart the panel to verify that the procedure has been carried out correctly.
