Today, we will see the instructions that will allow us to remove and replace the timing belt on the Fiat Punto 1.2. First, open the engine bonnet of the vehicle and start removing the air filter box by disconnecting the air intake hose; then remove the valve cover and engine support, also removing the timing cover (unscrewing all the fixing screws), as shown in the video.
