It's funny how things work out sometimes RESOLVED

[engineerted]

As we say on that other fiat forum, "that's a nice photo of Pope's mom!"

[bradartigue]

rather than ask for money the kid doesn;t have, i'd suggest to him he make it up in trade.....mowing the lawn or something similar.

He mows the lawn in exchange for handwriting lessons?

funny stuff.

Hopefully Fiona will be ready this week (fingers crossed)

I am so numb to waiting at this point I stop caring. I called 24Mar2014 asked when & $ and still have no exact details

I am appreciating the free storage however, it will be 5 months this coming Friday and I am concerned about not being given an amount owed

Oh, and did I mention that the car now starts and idles but dies the second any gas is applied (come on). My insurance company also called me to ask how I am enjoying the car as they were informed it was completed. They are witholding the cheque until I call them.

I miss my Fiona and want her back.

Leaving for Mexico on Saturday so I really don't care anymore

Almost sorry I asked Jay

A few tequilas, sand and sun should help.
Hopefully all will be great when you get back.

Ciao

This out burst of not caring will not be tolerated on this site
Either change your attitude or go to Mexico and think about your actions

well somebodys ears must have been burning. Just off the phone with the body shop and Fiona is all ready to be picked up

HOWEVER, she does not run WTF?! she starts, she idles yet when gas is applied she quits. I have been waiting so long I just want to take her home and trouble shoot there. Another part of me says I delivered a fully functioning car and expect that in return

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

ALL OPINIONS WELCOME

[fiat218]

if it went in to the body shop, why would it not run , strange

[4uall]

they are strictly body shop (not garage) however, it ran when moving from outside to paint and vice versa

Something simple has happened then,

[4uall]

that's what i am hoping

just torn between waiting for them to fix and just picking it up then trying to fix myself (with the help of the forum)

[narfire]

Grounds on the intake ....?

[aj81spider]

Not sure I'd have a body shop start trying to fix a mechanical problem. Even if they caused it most of them won't have the expertise to fix it.

[4uall]

I hear you, however, they have contacts in the field that work on Fiats, Alfas etc so I would hope someone will get this going.

I may just bite the bullet and take her home to fix her, it just irritates me to have to do that
