Looking to buy Fiero w/ clutch problem help

[Nickell80]

Hey guys.

I am a Jeep guy and on a good amount of truck and Jeep forums, but I was looking on CL for a cheap something else to drive and found this Fiero http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/2351577759.html If the problem is what he says it is, how much/hard is it to fix?

Also, what other things should I look for if I find the deal might be good enough to actually go to look at it?


Thanks, Cody.

from what i know Cody your gionna have to drop the cradle its the part the engine and trans sits in its 4 bolts from what i can see then you have ability to seperate engine and trans but if your gonna go that far throw in a new clutch throwout bearing and fork when you go to look at it make shure the guy did not change fluids thats a big nono underneath on most the hangers for the coolant lines are rusted make shure thare not rust out .. the hangers that is on mine i have to replace them and look for all the heatshielding because if its not thare your spinnin your wheels the throttle cable will melt that was one thing i had to replace when i got mine from the guy 20 year old kid that knew nothin about cars sadly also when ytou go to look at itr check the fuses thats a gives a good idea of what else is going on and if the car has been siiting in one spot for a while look at the dirt.. any leaks just use commonsence is what im getting at no car id perfect like my typing but hey just make shure its not a lemmon
