- Replacing My First EVER Timing Belt And Water Pump (FIAT Seicento Sporting)
Hello guys, welcome back to Car Obsession, and welcome back to 'Bella', my FIAT Seicento Sporting. In this video I take on something I've never done before...a timing belt and water pump replacement. Thankfully for me (and for Bella, for that matter), the 1.1 litre FIRE petrol engine is non-interference. This means that if the timing is out, there is no need to worry about the pistons smashing the valves in to oblivion.
As well as replacing the timing belt, I'll also be replacing the water pump as that is driven by the belt, so it's best practice to replace that at the same time. As much as this is not a 'How To' video (I am NOT a trained mechanic) if you find this video helpful be sure to like, comment and subscribe.

Good afternoon everyone! Welcome back to Car Obsession, and welcome once more to 'Bella', my FIAT Seicento Sporting. In this video I carry out a job I've never done before...timing belt and water pump replacement. Did it go to plan, or did I bite off more than I can chew???
I couldn't get my sei to start for half a year; because of your video i only now realised there were two different marks on the crank shaft gear...
🙌🏽 Glad I could help 👍🏽.
Great analysis of the procedure. Never tried replacing the timing belt on my Seicento but this gave me all the information I may need if I ever give it a go in the future.
I'm glad to hear it mate! One of the reasons I made the video was because when I was looking for videos myself there weren't many I found overly helpful, especially in English.
I found that surprising as the 1.1 FIRE engine has been around for donkey's years. I also wanted to highlight the pitfalls I had to avoid them happening to someone else.
Good job. My Abarth Seicento's belt was also out by one tooth until I replaced its belt. It did feel a little perkier after that.
Nice info❤keep wrenching🔧
Thank you! 😁
Great spannering! Cambelts is one thing I’ve always been reluctant to do, so hats off to you mate 👏
Thanks pal! I was much more comfortable trying the job myself as the engine is non interference. I may do the timing belt on the MX-5, but that's a bit more involved so would probably want supervision from one of the guys at the garage I work at.
Hey buddy 😊🤗✌️
Another great video.
"The red dipstick not the one using the camera!"😳😳😀😀🤣🤣💜💜✌️😊🤗 Don't be so hard on yourself, in many ways you're a polymath! Multi-talented👍✌️💜😊
Good to point out its non interference - they fill me with dread! Some older high po twin cam Fiat's were - horror stories abound 😳😳
That airfilter box is a lot less fiddly than on my Swift.
When I've done cambelts I've never taken the plugs out. A big socket and bar only (wheel off one engine mount loosened and jacked up).
A word of wisdom to the wise, use some tippex or similar on the alignment/timing marks (before removing the old belt).
Also, if there's room (and one is not changing the water pump - I often changed the water pump and idlers every other cambelt change IF the water pump was a quality one - main dealers don't often change the water pump 😳🙄💩), one can cut the old belt in half - long ways on. Take away half of the old belt, slide the new belt partially on - then cut off the rest of the old belt. Then push new belt fully on, as easy as!
I always used Gates kits, they come with idler gears etc, full job, often better than main dealer offerings (just the belt and lots of cash).
Hiya Muso, as always, thanks for watching. I've been called many things, but I don't think a polymath has been one of them before 😅. Yes, tippexing is another way of doing it, so good tip there 👌.
@@CarObsession ✌️👍💜😊😀🤗😀
Great video, do you have any part numbers for both belts and pump? Cheers
Hi there, thanks for watching. The parts were bought from Euro Car Parts, and they use their own part numbers:
Timing Belt Kit - 348771718
Water Pump - 201650245
Auxiliary Drive Belt - 202771125
Hope this helps.
Hopefully you have learnt a few things and that every day is a school day 😉👍
It is indeed!
