102IN AN EMERGENCY
JACKING THE CAR
WITH THE JACK
See
IF A TYRE IS PUNCTUREDin this
chapter. Please note:
– The jack requires no adjustments.
– The jack cannot be repaired. If it
breaks it must be replaced with a new
jack.
– Apart from the handle shown in
this chapter no other tools should be
installed on the jack. WITH A SHOP JACK
From the front
Jack up the car only by positioning
the jack arm at the gearbox/differen-
tial and placing a rubber pad in be-
tween, as shown in fig. 43.
From the rear end
The car may only be raised by plac-
ing the jack arm under the suspension
supports with a flat, compact piece of
wood placed as shown in fig. 44. The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the car for which it
was designed. It should not be
put to other uses or employed to
raise other models. Under no cir-
cumstances should it be used
when carrying out repairs under
the car.
An incorrectly posi-
tioned jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the
jack to lift loads exceeding that
indicated on the label attached
to the jack itself. Never start the engine
when the car is jacked up.
Detach the trailer,
where relevant, before jacking up
the car.

Modifications or repairs
to the fuel feed system
that are not carried out
properly or do not take the sys-
tem’s technical specifications
into account can cause malfunc-
tions leading to the risk of fire. FUEL SUPPLY IGNITION
Integrated multipoint electronic in-
jection and ignition system: a single
control units controls both function
processing injection time (for fuel me-
tering) and spark advance angle at the
same time.
SPARK PLUGS
The cleanness and soundness of the
spark plugs are very important for
keeping the engine efficient and pol-
luting emissions down.
The appearance of the spark plug, if
examined by an expert eyes, is a good
way of pinpointing a problem even if
it has nothing to do with the ignition
system. Therefore, if the engine has
problems, it is important to have the
spark plugs checked at a Fiat Deal-
ership.
TRANSMISSION
CLUTCH
Mechanically controlled without
travel-free pedal.
GEARBOX
Five forward gears and reverse with
synchromesh for front gear engage-
ment.
Cyclical gear reduction and differen-
tial assembly incorporated in the gear-
box.
Drive transmission to the front
wheels by means of drive shafts con-
nected to the differential assembly and
the wheels with CV joints. The spark plugs must be
changed at the times
specified in the
SERVICE
SCHEDULE
. Only use the type of
plugs indicated. If the heat ratio
is less than required or the life
specified is not guaranteed, prob-
lems can arise.
