To remove the air cleaner element:
❒Remove the air cleaner inlet hose (1).
❒Remove the bolts (2), loosen the bolt
(3) and lift the air cleaner case (4) di-
rectly above.
IMPORTANT When lifting the air clean-
er, make sure the air cleaner does not in-
terfere the engine oil dipstick (5) to avoid
damage the dipstick.
❒Unclamp the side clamps, and remove
the element from the air cleaner case.
If it appears to be dirty, replace it with
a new one.
SPARK PLUGS
(Gasoline engine)
For Nickel spark plugs (traditional type):
You should inspect spark plugs periodi-
cally for carbon deposits. When carbon
accumulates on a spark plug, a strong
spark may not be produced. Remove car-
bon deposits with a wire or pin and adjust
the spark plug gap.
To access the spark plugs:
❒Remove the air cleaner case. Refer to
“Air Cleaner” in this section.
❒If necessary, disconnect the coupler (1)
while pushing the release lever.
❒Remove the ignitor bolts.
❒Pull the spark plug boots out.
NOTE When installation, make sure the
wires, couplers, sealing rubber of air clean-
er assy and washers, are correctly re-
turned in place.

IMPORTANT When replacing spark
plugs, you should use the brand and type
specified for your vehicle. For the speci-
fied plugs, refer to the “SPECIFICA-
TIONS” section at the end of this book. If
you wish to use a brand of spark plug oth-
er than the specified plugs, consult your
Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT
❒When installing the spark plugs, screw
them in with your fingers to avoid strip-
ping the threads. Tighten with a torque
wrench to 25 Nm (2.5 kgm, 18.0 lb-ft).
Do not allow contaminants to enter the
engine through the spark plug holes
when the plugs are removed.
❒Never use spark plugs with the wrong
thread size.
IMPORTANT
❒When disconnecting the spark plug ca-
bles, pull on the boot, not on the ca-
ble itself. Pulling on the cable can dam-
age it.
❒When servicing the Iridium/ Platinum
spark plugs (slender center electrode
type plugs), do not touch the center
electrode, as it is easy to damage.

NOTE If your engine is equipped with the
hightension cord type ignition wiring and
you experience some firing problem of
spark plugs, such as, hard engine- starting,
misfire etc., the cause may be located not
only on spark plugs but also on deterio-
rated ignition wirings (generally, used for
more than 80,000 km or five years). If
spark plug replacement does not solve the
problem, have the ignition wiring and oth-
er ignition system inspected by your Fiat
Dealership.FUEL FILTER
(Diesel engine)
The fuel filter works as a water sedimen-
tor as well.
Drain water when the fuel filter warning
light comes on. To drain water:
❒Place a pan or ample rag under the fu-
el filter drain nozzle.
❒Loosen the drain knob (1). The water
will be drained.
❒Tighten the drain knob when the water
changes to the diesel fuel.
❒Tighten the drain knob.
