Before starting, open the front bonnet of your Fiat Punto 1.2. Begin by removing the air filter housing and the associated hoses by unscrewing the relevant screws and clamps. Next, remove and relocate the component positioned above the throttle body and its supporting bracket by unscrewing the relevant nuts and screws.

This will give you access to the throttle body. Proceed to disconnect the electrical connectors, then unscrew the fastening screw.

At this point, you can extract and remove the throttle body from the engine bay, completing the removal process.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
