Video tutorial

In this video, we explore some maintenance aspects of a methane-powered Fiat Qubo, and more generally about methane vehicles: even if methane fuel is no longer used, there is still an obligation to change the cylinders after the prescribed four years.

On the Qubo, the first cylinder is mounted under the rear boot, protected by a partition and controlled by a solenoid valve, which in this case was found to be damaged.

Following the piping, we reach the second cylinder, also covered by a partition (but the cylinders are painted a very noticeable orange colour) located just under the central floor, and this is also controlled by its solenoid valve.
