    Nice to see a real life "will it start" video - looks like you ran into most of the issues you can get - Love these little Fiats!

      Yes nothing staged here all filmed live.
      As is all of the work.
      I heard a good quote
      “This is real not really”
      Which is exactly what we do !
      There is more to see with this one tune in next week for more.

    Iconic, delightful car that I enjoyed from 1989 to 2010 as a regularity racing car.
    A 600 D 750cc that gave me a lot of satisfaction and is now in Japan.
    Every time I looked at it I found it adorable, it looked big inside and its engine, which started before I even turned the key, roared. Nice car

      I love the FIAT 600 ! This one is a customer car but I have a 1968 one owner from new original and unrestored example. You can see it In my workshop tour part 2 video. I explain why I have such a love for them !

      It’s a good little car.
      Supposedly an insurance write off because of water damage to the interior.
      I think it was in a building that collapsed during a storm and the water ingress was from it sitting in the rain all winter. I don’t think the rubber on the glass was sealing so it just filled up with water and then went mouldy inside with the condensation. I also think the water in the engine is just condensation causing the lumps of congealing oil we saw when draining out the oil. I think it’s important to show how to do things in the videos there a a few little tips and tricks in there that could be useful.

    Great little car that will make! Nice job getting it running again.. I guess with a freshly rebuilt engine it was due a oil change anyway;)

  • @rorygallagher5316

    The lumpy oil is probably caused by some kind of engine break in oil that has been left too long.
    Certainly not by water in the oil.
    The engine and probably the transaxle have been rebuilt. The trans is too clean to have been
    in long use. I hope he's working in slow morion for the sake of the video.🙂

      Break in oil could be the explanation.
      I’m not sure about the flood theory anymore. I think the water damage to the interior of the FIAT was a combination of the water leaking in from the glass rubber and then condensation from the water trapped inside the cabin .
      I suspect the oil has congealed due to condensation and also it wasn’t run for approximately three years during this period I’m convinced that it was left outside exposed to the elements.
      Possibly in a collapsed building which might explain the damage to the roof.
      The wrecking yard were it came from just said that it was water damage with no further explanation .
      So I don’t think there was any water ingress to the engine.
      There was bad flooding in the area of England where the yard was so the client decided upon the flood theory .
      We think that it was restored in Italy to a good standard and yes an engine rebuild.
      The good news is that it is back on the road with a new interior and the roof repaired and painted.
      It’s done some decent runs and attended some shows over the summer .
      The client loves it so well worth the effort to save it.

    What a great find. I'm amazed it wasn't more damaged. Did you have to change the starter motor?

    • @marksitaliangarage
      @marksitaliangarage  Рік тому

      It really is a good one.
      I think it might have been in a building that collapsed and then the water got in and recked the cloth interior . I don’t know what happened but there isn’t any tied mark so a flood isn’t my thinking.
      So no starter motor required which again points to it not being submerged.
      More on this one tomorrow.

    Hi Mark. I have a 1962 fiat 600d. where is the oil filter?

    • @marksitaliangarage
      @marksitaliangarage  2 місяці тому

      More often than not a FIAT 600 does without a conventional oil filter
      They have a centrifuge filter which is part of the crankshaft pulley. Just like you would expect on the air-cooled 500 .
      You can clearly see it in the next video on the FIAT 600 the one where I knocked out the dent in the roof. This 600 has both the centrifuge filter and the more conventional filter. Don’t neglect to clean the centrifuge, it is often ignored and engine wear will be the result.
      I hope that you are enjoying your 600 I think that they are lovely little things .
