Dear all,
As a new member I would like to say a warm hello to everyone.
I just got my beautiful Bar'k'etta ;) but I have two problems with it.
It is a silver 1998 one.
All though I live in greece and rain is not an everyday winter issue, when it rains a lot i get some water in the cabin. the water leaks from the side windows due to some gaps in the rubber surrounding. The other part that waters comes in from is the rear where the roof sits on the rear bonnet. Do you think that replacing all rubber surrounding of the soft top will solve the problem?
The other issue I have is rather strange. When the engine is cold and the rpm needle reaches 2.000rpm exactly, the car looses power for about a second, then revs up normally. Also, the engine can stall pretty easily if you don't rev up to 2.000rpm when starting from standing. Finally, my clutch is extremely heavy. is that normal?
Many thanks!
 
Well, nice to meet you all!
Χαίρομαι που είναι έτσι τα πράγματα :)
