STATION
FUEL
Fill petrol engine cars only with un-
leaded petrol with a minimum octane
number of 95.
Fuel tank capacity: 45 litres includ-
ing a reserve of 5 - 8 litres.Never put even the tiniest
amount of leaded fuel in
the tank, even in an emer-
gency. You would damage the cat-
alytic converter beyond repair.
ENGINE OIL
Check the level: see the “Car main-
tenance” section.
The distance between the MINand
MAXmarks on the dipstick is equiv-
alent to about one litre of oil.
Use SAE 10W-40 oil for tempera-
tures down to –25°C.
For temperatures lower than –20°C,
we recommend using SELENIA
PERFORMERSAE 5W-30.Refer to the “Technical specifica-
tions” section for other information.

section.
An inefficient catalytic
converter will allow harm-
ful exhaust fumes to be
emitted and thus contribute to the
pollution of the air.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Motor and engineering enthusiasts as well as
those “in the trade” will probably start reading
from this point in the manual. This, in fact, is
where a section jam-packed with facts, figures,
formulae, measurements and tables begins. In a
sense, it is the Lancia Y’s identity card.
A document that introduces the car and explains
in technical jargon all the features that go together
to make it a model designed to give you superla-
tive driving satisfaction.VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION DATA ............... 145

(*) Analytic method, by electronically process-
ing data from the engine rpm (speed) sensor
and from the air temperature and absolute pres-
sure sensors in the intake manifold (density).
LUBRICATION
Forced-fed with gear pump with
pressure relief valve incorporated.
Oil purification through full-flow
cartridge filter.
COOLING
Cooling system with radiator, cen-
trifugal pump and expansion tank.
“Fixed by-pass” thermostat(1.2 en-
gine)” on the secondary circuit for the
recirculation of water from the engine
to the radiator.
Electric fan for radiator cooling on
the radiator with switching on/off
controlled by thermostatic switch lo-
cated on the radiator. Modifications or repairs
to the fuel feed system that
are not carried out prop-
erly or do not take the system’s
technical specifications into ac-
