Removing the timing belt on a Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt we have to access the engine from the side, so after lifting the car we remove the right front wheel and the relative under-wheel mudguards. Now we loosen the pulley bolts on the crankshaft and let's make room for maneuvers from the top of the engine by removing the air filter, the engine support after placing a jack under the engine itself. Now let's remove the two-piece timing belt guard and disconnect the sensor cables that run inside. Before starting the final disassembly take the correct precautions for the timing as shown.
