hello, im John, 24 from Croydon. Ive got a Panda 1000. I havnt been able to drive it for a few years cos the clutch has seized solid. Not only that, the engine uses the old 4-star fuel which is hard to find. Ive got a plan to change the engine for something a little bit bigger and do some other little mods to bring it up to date. I'll be reading through the forum learning a bit more about the car and seeing what engines i can upgrade to and where i can find some spare parts.:slayer:
 
ive no idea. according to what the previous owners said, its only ever ran on 4 star. I did accidentally fill up with unleaded once. the car didnt feel any different, but damage would happen over a period of time had i continued to use unleaded. I think its something to do with the valve seats requiring protection that the 4 star fuel gives. To convert, i'd have to change whe whole top end. I'd rather fit a new engine. Bit of a shame as the car has only done 17k genuine miles from new.
 
Hmm, there's two types of Unleaded; Premium Unleaded and Super Unleaded... I think Super Unleaded replaced 4 Star, but someone else should confirm that, I don't want to be responsible if all goes belly-up!!! :) Anyway, here's a link to the Classic Fiat Panda section, in case you needed it.

Thanks for joining and enjoy your stay.
