OK, I just joined, and this is my first post.
My question does not actually relate to a Cinquecento. Rather a Cagiva (Ducati) Elefant 900 motorcycle. But it uses the same size air filter as the Fiat Cinquecento and Seicento. I'm trying to find out the various filter brands and part numbers for these cars to aid in purchasing filters for my motorcycles (my wife and I also own two Moto Guzzis that also use this same size filter).
Here is what I've determined: I have a K&N filter for my Guzzi Quota (part number 33-2682). As I said, it is the same size for my Elefant and wife's Jackal cycles. The ONLY automotive applications I can find that uses the same K&N filter are the Fiat Cinquecento and Seicento. Therefore the other filter options you have would likely fit our bikes as well.
Other than a K&N filter, the only other option I can find in the United States is a UFI filter. I must mail order them, and they are relatively expensive here. I don't want to put a K&N in the Elefant,
and bother with rejetting the carburetors. I'll order the UFI filter if necessary, but if I can find a variety of common filter options that could be purchased at the auto parts store, it would be easier and cheaper.
So can you all help me out and let me know all the manufacturers and filter numbers for air filters for your cars that you can think of?
Thanks and howdy from Texas!
