Prepare to replace the timing belt on a Fiat 600. Lift the car on a column lift; remove the front wheel and the right wheel arch liner. Once these operations are completed, remove the cover panel of the belt (remove the sensor).

Using a suitable spanner, loosen the second tensioner and slide the belt off its seat. After fitting the new belt, use the spanner to install the tensioner, tightening until the correct belt tension is achieved (install both belts).

Finally, check the tensioner and the belt itself, and tighten everything with a socket wrench.
