Video tutorial

As shown in the video, despite the presence of the fuel filter, the carburettor collects a certain amount of impurities, so it is advisable to clean it periodically. Once the carburettor is removed and opened, you can proceed to a general check and cleaning operations.

There is not much more to add; the video explains in detail the function of each component that makes up the carburettor, each of which should be checked, cleaned, and possibly replaced. It is therefore sufficient to follow it carefully and clean each part step by step.

For all cleaning operations, paraffin and a brush are sufficient. This procedure is now only valid for the older Fiat Panda 4x4 Sisley.
