    Fiat Multi Air System PDF

    Uploaded by

    Miguel Camacho
    This document summarizes the Fiat Multi-Air variable valve timing system. It operates the intake valves variably using electro-hydraulic actuation while exhaust valves remain conventional. It is used in 1.4L Fiat and 2.4L Chrysler engines to improve fuel efficiency and power. The system modifies valve lift and timing using a solenoid-controlled hydraulic system. It is capable of full lift, early intake closing, late intake opening, and multi-lift profiles. Proper maintenance like regular oil changes is required for proper operation. The document outlines testing and diagnostics of the system.
