@@RonaldFinger Speaking of throttle cable, you could have used hockey tape on top of the electrical tape for a more factory finish and better resistant to the engine bay elements. Many German cars use a similar tape on electrical wires, take a look: www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/cloth-webbed-adhesive-tape-10m/000979950/
Hello boys and girls. I hope all enjoy this video. If everything goes to plan, the car will be running right in time for Part 7 of the Fiero series to be released on Christmas Day! Edit: *New Year’s Day!
Ronald Finger I can’t wait it’s gonna be a Christmas miracle been watching for so long I’m actually gonna be sad when your done with the series your edits are so good and you are so educated when you talk not like the other car channels on this channel
Make sure the throttle opens 100 percent. You might need to adjust the throttle cable mount by the throttle body. GM left a good amount of slack in the cable so most fiero never get 100 percent open throttle
Makes me wish my dad and I had the time, tools, workspace, and money to restore his Fiero. It's nearly identical to this one, except the interior is gray upholstery. But it's the same model, same paint, same general features, about the same condition (more or less). Maybe one day. Till then, it'll sit in storage, and I'll have this series to watch and day dream over.
I know it may sound funny, but I'm really glad you are taking the time to do such a great job on a car that probably won't be worth the money invested in the end. You are showing your generation the fine art of recycling and auto mechanics at the same time.
I was a test driver for the Fiero project in 1982 (I believe) at EG&G Automotive Research in San Antonio. I was one of the first 6 persons who drove the Fiero. All of these were white in color, and had no markings at all that would enable you to tell the manufacture of the vehicle. We had no idea ourselves as drivers. A friend of mine lost his life while driving 130 mph on the test track at D'hanis, Texas. His car went off the road and he took out 17 fence posts one of which impaled him. The car was very uncomfortable to drive with the seats so rigid and we were driving 500 miles per day. I absolutely hate Fieros but I am enjoying watching this series which I have been watching from the beginning. Thanks for making it.
@@razorsz195 They have made vehicles more safe than they were before, but it was driver error. I doubt anything could have stopped a fence post at 130 mph. Look at it this way. It stopped the first 16.
That's quite sad. Fieros have a history of being pretty safe, so that's surprising. (However, going 130 mph in most cars and crashing kills people easily)
I had one of the first production models. It had a serious understeer problem when you hammered on it coming out of a curve. I can't help but wonder if your friend found out about it the hard way.
Don't listen to the haters. No matter what.. id you keep going doing as you are.. you sir will have a sound solid piece of history that will show you the effort in return! Don't stop your journey as you wish to do as "your project" because YOU did it!
1984 Fiero owner here- I loved it (except for the steady stream of coolant from the pathetically bad cooling). I can't restore a vehicle to save my life, but your whole series is vastly entertaining and informative.
I also want to say that I'm glad you are restoring it and not "modding" it and trying to get too creative with it. You are just rebuilding it how it was and that's awesome. Not enough of these are in original condition. It doesn't have to be some hot-rod!

The editing on 2:23 to 2:33 is just brilliant! Well done.
On the throttle cable where it is abraded, extra protection can be cheaply added by splitting a piece of 5/16" fuel line lengthwise and popping it over the abraded section. The piece of hose will naturally close over it and will hold itself in place. Good work thus far on your project.
Hey, bit of a tip when you are welding sheetmetal, if you have a mig or tig welder you can pulse the torch allowing you to weld thinner metal also if you weld opposite corners of the plate it will help dissapate heat, hope this helps
I'm just glad to see you showing this car all the love and care it deserves and I'm sure the people you got it from are amazed at the progress you have done. I also love that you are taking your time and doing it right. These cars are getting fewer and I'm glad to see someone restoring one. I know you aren't one of these channels or people with endless resources but you seem to have what you need to get it done. Don't worry about the timing of your videos. I'll be watching each video no matter how long they take to come out or the run time!
I've been following this build for the last year. I hadn't seen any of your videos before the fiero build when it happened to pop up on my recommended. I have to say I thoroughly enjoy your videos and editing skills and whatnot which make them very entertaining. I can't wait for part 7 to come out and see the beast driving again! For a diy project you are doing a phenomenal job and always make me want to tackle projects when my interests start shifting every now and then. 👍
I've never seen anyone go through that much effort restoring a car, usually it's just the engine but you go all the way! I'll have to keep this in mind when I buy a project car! I'm learning a lot from your videos, thank you!
Hey Ronnie! That engine compartment is looking really nice. I've got an 86 SE 2M6 and love it. Can't wait to see you getting it running. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing your videos with us!
DUDE, I checked your channel last night, hoping to see something new. And this appears now :) Perfect thing to get me motivated to finish my BMW's transmission filter job.
Man, I really hope that car does whatever you have planned for it. You are an inspiration to everyone. I think you are doing an awesome job. Just earned a new subscriber.
Tire dressing (Tire Wet, etc...) does a great job of cleaning/blackening black plastic parts, if youd like to make those look new when reinstalling them. It works for a pretty long time dependent on sun exposure. excellent work so far!!!
i'm not really a car type of guy, but you seriously got me hooked on the fiero repair series like it was crack. all the best of luck to you with the restoration project. these videos are super inspiring.
I really like how you make videos ! You're funny too ! lol. It's interesting to watch you work. The fine details always bothered me when working on my many many cars I've owned during my lifetime. But you can remove every part, clean prep paint and re-install all the surrounding parts, no matter how painful it is to do. You do excellent work dude ! Don't change ! We like you just the way you are ! peace
Got a 87 fiero slant back in excellent condition until my dad ran it hot and blew the motor so it got to be pulled. Your engine bay changes are great and will be used on it!
Hey Ronald! Ever looked at Duracool 12a? I used it for a project of mine adding A/C back to an early Miata, and I highly recommend it. I didn't have to worry about mineral oil compatibility and the pressures are far lower overall, which I think will help prolong the life of the original compressor. R134 conversions have their own special hell because the lubricants really aren't compatible, and this option worked out really well for me.
I can't adequately state how relieving it is, to see things not only be fixed to operational, but *cleaned* as you're going along. If everything's out of the way, might as well, right? It may be a lot of extra work, but it's awesome that you're willing to do it, and it's all looking great.
HECK YES, NEXT EPISODE!!!!!!!!! This just made my day. I am so invested in this series, and I have no idea why, it's incredible. See y'all Christmas Day... ooooor in 3 months. Either one is fine.
for future reference, tech flex makes some high temp mesh loom if you're not having it maybe rub against exhaust pipes. stuff is great, but cutting it can be.. interesting. hot knives are recommended and some care.
I live in central Texas but often get near the Woodlands. I just got an metallic red '88 Duke 5speed. I am loving yer vids even more so now. Your inspiring me to get off my 65 year old butt and enjoy working on my Fiero, again. Thanks! And keep it up, please!
Thanks for these videos! I have an unrestored 87 SE 2.8L that literally needs everything you’ve done. Your series is giving me the confidence to get going- and making me seriously wonder how I’m going to get a lift!
I CAN'T WAIT I CAN'T WAIT I CAN'T WAIT I CAN'T WAIT I CAN'T WAIT for this Fiero to get it's new lease on life!!! Bravo to you for putting in the man-hours putting 'er back together!
Safety glasses! Awesome, you read my comment on your last video ! The Fiero is coming along wonderfully, I can't wait to see how it looks once you restore the exterior, now that the engine and interior have been cleaned, and restored.
I think you're doing a great job with this series. Don't be afraid to show more of the tedious stuff like cleaning, and sandblasting. A lot of people actually enjoy watching that. ;)
Also looks so trippy seeing a car from the 80 look in rough condition look bloody gorgeous after. If I didn’t see these videos and you came to me with the car in person finished I would ask fully “wow it looks garage kept where did you get it??” my eyes would be huge if you showed me how it was in the first place.
Glad to see it coming back together. I'm going to give you two pointers but overall you seem to be doing a great! 1) It shouldn't be that hard to couple your A/C lines together. I know this is going to seem wrong, but a light rubbing of silicone grease/oil will help them slid together and wont harm anything. If you're worried it will cause harm, use the proper A/C compressor oil for your car. Just a light coating is all you need to help it slide. >You should never use the bolt to force them together because you'll risk damaging one of the o-rings causing a leak. 2) Rather than use electrical tape to fix the throttle cable, I'd use "F4 Tape Self-Fusing Silicone Tape" (or whatever the other brands call it.) You can buy the brand I mentioned on Amazon but the other brands are at any auto part's store. Just ask for a "self-fusing/sticking tape". This tape will only stick to it's self and it's also stretchable just like electrical tape. >Electrical tape will degrade overtime and leave an unspeakably horrible sticky mess behind. (Anyone who's ever had to repair someone else's car stereo install knows what I'm talking about.) Over all you seem to be putting allot of effort into doing a good job. Keep that up!
The cool thing about riveting and caulking that hole below the battery is, if it ever leaks acid and creates another hole, you can just drill out the rivets, pull out the patch panel, and rivet a new one in.
You can use panel bond from 3M and it works great. I suck at welding and I put a new battery tray in my '89 IROC and it turned out great using panel bond. The stuff will tear the metal before it will release the bond. You cant even tell it isn't the original tray. Love the work you have put into this old girl.
Just a hotrodder's suggestion. The one place you desparately need a good ground is at the starter. I always recommend a heavy ground wire from one of the starter bolts to the frame. Can't hurt.
I never cared much for Fieros but I find it interesting to see how they were engineered and built. Also, it's satisfying to see pretty much anything restored. Keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing the finished product.
If you haven't put the engine in yet you could check out dynamat. It's sound insulation for automotive purposes. It works just like the foil you put up only better. When you tackle the interior, you can put it on there too (or just there now that you've got the foil up).
Love the series. The Feiro was new when I was young and I have always loved them although have never owned one. The care and attention to detail you are showing in your restoration is great. Once she is completely restored maybe think about doing a 3800SC swap so that I know how to do it once i get mine, LOL.
really enjoy your videos. i wish i would have thought of that while i was beginning my diesel swap that turned into a restomod. keep up the strong work, time travel and bloodletting...
You could completely make your career by finding cars like this beauty and putting them through your great restoration treatment. You're fucking good at it!
An easier option with the sound deadening might have been to line the engine bay with something like Dynamat and then use the thermal insulation over the top to provide thermal protection. It's not uncommon for modern vehicles with tight engine bays to be insulated in that way, with a few well placed clips to hold it up should the adhesive fail...
Love the work you're doing. I have a project car as well and watching you bring something like this back to life is inspiring. I hope you have a plan for the engine bay for sound insulation before you put the engine back in. If you're skipping that, definitely go for some dynamat or similar for the interior. That stuff worked wonders on my car.
FYI, designengineering has some pretty amazing line sleeves that are reusable. Great on wire looms in case you ever need to check wiring on stuff. Or just to protect a small section from heat.
watching from my basement. i can hear the christmas music and the laughter, always the laughter
how is nobody talking about how good his throttle cable drawing is?
The secret is 3D modeling everything and compositing the renders to look like drawings 😎
@@RonaldFinger Even so. Nice work!
Unless you're Jason from _Engineering Explained_ then you just use a projector and trace.

Speaking of throttle cable, you could have used hockey tape on top of the electrical tape for a more factory finish and better resistant to the engine bay elements.

Edit: *New Year’s Day!
Ronald Finger looks so good
Is that Maxjax thing new? Dont remember seeing that before. Makes working on the car a lot easier I bet.
Steven Buchanan, not particularly no. It was the sole reason that I was able to drop the engine in the Part 6 😬

Man i really think the prior owner starts crying seeing it restored in full glory. Looks stunning man!
hahah whats is that can of soup actually?
@@RomboutVersluijs its a vacuum canister it help maintain a supply of vacuum for the car, most A/c and heater controls operate using vacuum
I think he would be very happy it is getting restored
@@Gari.Hughes The previous owner lowered the price from 500 to 100 when he heard he's going to restore it instead of making it a parts car
TheLaXandro how many people would say that just to get the car. But to actually see it being done must be nice for em
As far as the, “acoustic insulation at a later time”, Jay Leno swears by Dynomat. He lines the interior of many of his resto-mods with it.
This is such a fun series. I owned an 88 CRX Si and it was always a lot of fun meeting a Fiero or MR2 on the road.
i’ve genuinely never have been so interested in a car restoring series. thaaank you

I'm subbed to a lot of different car channels, and this Fiero restore is the one that gets me most excited when I see a new upload.
Love that you're restoring this old girl. Love those cars.

Glad to see it coming back together. I'm going to give you two pointers but overall you seem to be doing a great!
1) It shouldn't be that hard to couple your A/C lines together. I know this is going to seem wrong, but a light rubbing of silicone grease/oil will help them slid together and wont harm anything. If you're worried it will cause harm, use the proper A/C compressor oil for your car. Just a light coating is all you need to help it slide.
>You should never use the bolt to force them together because you'll risk damaging one of the o-rings causing a leak.
2) Rather than use electrical tape to fix the throttle cable, I'd use "F4 Tape Self-Fusing Silicone Tape" (or whatever the other brands call it.) You can buy the brand I mentioned on Amazon but the other brands are at any auto part's store. Just ask for a "self-fusing/sticking tape". This tape will only stick to it's self and it's also stretchable just like electrical tape.
>Electrical tape will degrade overtime and leave an unspeakably horrible sticky mess behind. (Anyone who's ever had to repair someone else's car stereo install knows what I'm talking about.)
Over all you seem to be putting allot of effort into doing a good job. Keep that up!
Congratulations on 200k. Love the content.
The cool thing about riveting and caulking that hole below the battery is, if it ever leaks acid and creates another hole, you can just drill out the rivets, pull out the patch panel, and rivet a new one in.
You can use panel bond from 3M and it works great. I suck at welding and I put a new battery tray in my '89 IROC and it turned out great using panel bond. The stuff will tear the metal before it will release the bond. You cant even tell it isn't the original tray. Love the work you have put into this old girl.

Good job, so nice to see a young man interested in something else than social media a video games.
Love the work you're doing. I have a project car as well and watching you bring something like this back to life is inspiring. I hope you have a plan for the engine bay for sound insulation before you put the engine back in. If you're skipping that, definitely go for some dynamat or similar for the interior. That stuff worked wonders on my car.
As a Fiero owner and lover it is so nice to see someone bring one back from the dead.
I’ve watched this project from the beginning and I like how it’s progressing.
FYI, designengineering has some pretty amazing line sleeves that are reusable. Great on wire looms in case you ever need to check wiring on stuff. Or just to protect a small section from heat.
Looking forward for part 7👍
