How to Change the Engine Oil on the Fiat 500

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Engine oil

Briefly, we will see the instructions that will allow us to change the engine oil on the classic Fiat 500. First, open the rear engine cover and start unscrewing the oil filler cap; then lift the vehicle and unscrew the drain bolt located on the sump, allowing the oil to drain into a container for about ten minutes, as shown in the video. At this point, screw the drain bolt back in, then top up with new engine oil (with the specifications indicated in the user and maintenance manual); all that’s left is to start the engine!
