Have you had the fuel pump output pressure checked....Sounds as if it could be defective.....Pressure should be above 3 .6 bar Or maybe check your battery condition, that may be the problem, but more likely the pump....

My fiat punto 1.2 active has been cutting out for no reason it's a 53 plate running very rich on fuel just had an oxygen censor and a cooling censor fixed still running very rich on fuel

Sure they replaced the correct coolant sensor (not the one for the dash gauge)? Could be leaky fuel injector(s), bad fuel pressure regulator.

What is the best way to remove the water pump?

To remove the water pump of Fiat Punto/Stilo:
1 Disconnect the battery negative terminal.
2 Drain the cooling system.
3 Remove the timing belt.
4 Unscrew the retaining nut and the three bolts and withdraw the coolant pump (see illustration). If the pump is stuck, tap it gently? using a soft-faced mallet - do not lever between the pump and cylinder block mating faces of Fiat Punto (Stilo). best-way-remove-water-pump-x4hf4jmz40to2ykgevxwzmql-3-0.jpg

Fiat punto 2005 spark plug change

Hi Gerard, on a 1.28v Punto the plugs are on the back of the cylinder head tucked between the 4 inlet manifolds. The plug closest to the timing belt end (just next to the oil dipstick) is easy to find, the others are a bit obscured by the plastic housing that sheaths the injector wiring. Be careful pulling off the suppressor caps, they hang on quite tight so best use long nose pliers and NOT pull on the HT lead. Hope that helps. Andy

No spark at cylinders 1&4

Considering the whole system runs with a common crank sensor, the first place I would test would have also been the coil. If these have been tested and are ok, I would start looking at the ecu. The signal to the coil is generated by the ecu and unless there is a break in wiring, it is more than likely the problem.

If you have access to a wiring diagram, check for the coil trigger signal from the ecu. If this is present at the ecu, problem is wiring. If no signal at ecu then that's your problem.

Keep in mind that cyl 1&4 and 2&3 fire together off common coils in the coil pack so the fact that those cylinders are faulty together, also leads to ecu.

I know the fiat's have a history of problems with ecu- especially if the vehicles are valet'd and the engine pressure cleaned.

Please give us feedback regarding what you find- hope I led u in the right direction!

Fiat punto

The fuel tank has lines that go out of it for different jobs. One of this plastic lines helps the gas fumes to breathe out in to the atmosphere throu a filter, so if this line is clogged for some reason no air can get out when you pump the gas in, so it spills it out. Locate this line and replace or unclogge it and hopefully this will cure you problem
