I would like to know the valve clearances and spark plug gaps for a fiat panda 1.1 2004 model. thanks

What year and model is your panda? Also is it a 3 or 5 door model? Different years use different hinges. Some models use a bolt as the hinge pin others need you to unbolt the whole hinge either at door side or frame side.

On all Fiat overhead cam engines which use bucket followers and shims then almost without exception the valve clearances should be:

0.50mm +/- 0.05mm - EXHAUST
0.40mm +/- 0.05mm - INLET

tune it up. (fresh spark parts work best in cold and for sure damp wheather.
fresh gas?
leaking injectors?
isc stuck closed, and rpm low, hot?

the ecu, anticipates the next cold start,
it knows how much to open the iSC valve, to get a good start cold
and if colder to day, it opens more. (math)
if it (ISC) is gummed up,fas all do, it cant start right
so next time, try %10 throttle, starting, emulating a good ISC.
see?

Check all these are NGK as used by Ffiat

Do you happen to have a hacksaw blade? The thickness of the hacksaw blade is equal to the clearance of the
spark plug contacts. You can put the hacksaw blade flat
between the contacts, and make the necessary adjustment. Then, start your engine. Send in your e-mail
so we will know.

Take a couple of minutes and move the #4 sparkplug to another cylinder to see if the miss moves with it; I have had more than a few bad plugs over the years with cracks in the ceramic and in one instance, the platinum thread of a Bosch plug actually fell down onto the ground electrode.
I don't understand your valve clearance number of + - 3000? If the valve clearance is way off. you won't find decent compression either.
BTW, I drove Fiats for 34 years; '67 124 (terrible car), '71 & '74 128, '79, '80, 80 Stradas, '80 X1/9 and now have as a summer fun car. '87 Bertone X1/9. Loved 'em all except for the first one but maintained all except the first one.

pour a thimble full of engine oil down each cyl then start it it should go sounds like rings have seized and you are getting no compression . this should make it start
