Where to find a good Repair Manual

Postby MikeAyuso » Tue Sep 05, 2017 7:50 pm

Hi all,

Can anyone help me find a good repair manual that is comprehensive with diagrams, pictures, etc for all aspects for a 1984 Fiat Pinifarina Azzurra Spider? I need one so I can have it handy for myself and my mechanic when I start my restoration project pretty soon.

Cheers,
Mike

I don't know if it's considered PC to mention it here but the forums on Mirafiori.com probably have what you're looking for. Service manuals, microfiche scans and wiring diagrams abound.

As far as paper manuals, downloadable, etc, it is generally agreed that they all are pretty good at some things, pretty poor at others, and that we need to have a set of 3 or 4 or more of them to cover most all of the topics. They are available online, and there is one that is a few hundred pages that is commonly referred to as (probably incorrectly) the "fiat factory manual" that is pretty good and gives most of the detailed specs and pretty good drawings. It (and many others) can be found with a quick internet search. Good luck!
