Hello out there...
We have a 1995 Fiat Punto ELX which we picked up as a ' run around ' second car. The purchase price was extremely good, so we went for it. We have had the car for a little while and I have grown attached to it and don't really want to lose it, so much so, I am thinking of ' sprucing ' it up a bit, you know, possibly alloy wheels if they can be sourced at the right price and also giving it a bit more TLC.
I have never had a owners manual for the car, wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction for obtaining one.
Also all I know about the car is that it is a 1.2 ELX. After searching this forum, I am presuming it is a ' 75 8v ' Punto. Could anyone help me in establishing exactly what the true spec is with this car, or how I could find out?
Can anyone tell me the correct tyre pressures for this model?
Does anyone know the average MPG for this type.
The steering is quite ' heavy ' in that it is quite difficult to turn the wheel, the power steering fluid appears to be up-to the required level, is there anything I am missing?
The car has been regularly serviced, but not by someone who has the ' Fiat know how ', so after reading this forum will probably use Clovertech in Dagenham, they appear to have a good write up.
Here's hoping that all you budding Fiat enthusiasts maybe able to help.. :idea:
