1. Introduction
Since its first introduction in 1971 the FIAT
127 has undergone a continuing programme of
improvements concerned mainly with styling
and trim alterations. However, in 1977 a new
model range was introduced which included the
option of a larger engine of 1049 cc capacity
with a single overhead camshaft. In
appearance, cars in the new range are broadly
similar to the earlier models but they have a
lower bonnet line, larger glass area and
redesigned bumpers.
In October 1978, the FIAT 127-Sport was
launched. This is a high performance version of
the three door hatchback having the 1049 cc engine with a twin choke carburettor. Apart from
minor body styling changes, the Sport is
equipped with a larger capacity sump, twin
exhaust tailpipes, servo braking, additional
instrumentation and a laminated windscreen.
This supplement has been added to cater
for some of the production changes which have
been made, but principally to cover the 1049 cc
engine. The material given in Chapters 1 to 12
still applies unless superseded by information
contained in this Supplement. Therefore,
always read this Chapter in conjunction with the
rest of the book.
