I have heard people saying that with a 55 motor when the belt brakes, there will be no damage... dont know if it is true... I am curious if in your case there is any...

Hi, the cambelt on my wife's "P" reg punto 55S broke yesterday. It has been towed to our local garage for repair. I was wondering if there is enough clearance between the pistons and the valves so that the damage would be minimal so that I could get away with replacing the broken belt? Thanks.


I've heard the same... :-)

Ditto :-(

I was told this by a Fiat Dealer. Still don't know if it's true! Al
