2006 Alfa Romeo 166 fuel tank capacity

125
If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel thickens due to the formation
of paraffins and could clog the diesel fuel
filter.
In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed accord-
ing to the season: summer type, winter
type arctic type (mountains/cold areas).
If refuelling with diesel fuel not suitable
for the current temperature, mix diesel fu-
el with TUTELA DIESEL ARTadditive
in the proportions stated on the can,
putting first the antifreeze in the tank and
then the diesel fuel.
If driving or parking the vehicle for a
long period in cold areas/mountains, re-
fuel with the diesel fuel available at local
filling stations.
In this situation you are also recom-
mended to have in the tank an amount
of fuel 50% higher than usable capacity.FUEL CAP
The fuel cap is released from inside the
car pushing the button (A-fig. 150)
with the engine off.
When refuelling the cap can be hung to
the flap (A-fig. 151) using the hook
provided.
To avoid misplacing it when refuelling,
the cap is connected to the filler neck
with a cord.

REFUELLING
To guarantee full tank filling, carry out t-
wo refuelling operations after the first
click of the fuel delivery gun. Avoid fur-
ther topping up operations that could
cause damages to the fuel system.
