Video tutorial

In this video, learn how to clean the intake system of a Fiat Tipo: you will need a specific cleaner as recommended by the YouTuber, which can be found on eBay with code 122038641334 for £45.90, with free delivery. First, disconnect the battery, remove the air hoses by unscrewing clamps and bolts, disconnect the MAF sensors, and detach the intercooler.

Start the engine and let it warm up for 2-3 minutes, then spray the cleaner directly into the intake duct while the engine is running, using a tube to reach critical points. Occasionally rev the engine to expel dirt, which may come out forcefully.

Turn off the engine and reassemble all the hoses, then take a drive to burn off any residues in the exhaust.
