Removing the Throttle Body from a Fiat Punto 1.2 8V

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Throttle body

In this video tutorial, you will see how to remove the throttle body from a Fiat Punto 1.2 8 valve. First, open and lift the bonnet; then remove the intake hose by unscrewing the clamp screw. Next, remove the air filter box and the filter itself by unscrewing the fastening screws: this will give you access to the throttle body, where you will unscrew the screws at the base and disconnect the electrical connector to remove it. All that’s left is to clean it or replace it, and reassemble it by following the reverse procedure.
