Hello all.

I just recently had bought for me a '94 M-reg Fiat Uno 1.0ie Start from a car auction as my first car (i feel i am very lucky, i love the car already). I am going to have to do a number of things to get it good enough to drive with the help of my grandfather. We can do most thing, brakes etc. but we have a problem which neither of us know anything about and was hoping someone would be able to help us please:

The engine starts fine first time really easily, revs nicely etc. but then after a little running the engine revs go up and down for about a second and then either 1) keeps running normally again or 2) Stalls. Has anyone got any idea how to fix this? Any idea of the cause? It is like the car is short of fuel but the tank (according to the gauge is approx. 1/6 full and we put in £5 worth and it still did it).

Secondly, it might be related or maybe not, we are getting a large amount of water from the exhaust at the back. We ran the car for 10 minutes and had a pool of water at the back the size of a CD (maybe?) beneath the exhaust. There is no water in the oil - we checked and changed the oil. It is a mystery to us!

I would be extremely grateful to anyone who can help with either of these problems (or both!) and the favour will be remembered.

I am also looking for some wheel trims for this model because they were missing

I look forward to hearing from anyone

Regards
Paul

abarth wheels & steering. ia lowered. pg audio. refurnish.

projects: air intake. (used) seats. exhaust-repair. legal tint.

Replaced the vacuum advance unit and it all worked fine, hope that helped. Before that tried the throttle body - improved but didn't fix the problem.
