nigel bickle Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I'm trying to sort out some of Nigels cars, that others seem to have abused then just dumped back on him, whilst hospitalized. Friends & family ... eh? Anyway, I need a knowledgeable Fiat mechanic that understands Fiat Bravos -the HGT (5 cyl) ones. His seems to have burst a pipe/ or the water pump/ or a core plug directly beneath the inlet manifold -judging by the steam that issues forth between each cylinder once warm /revved. Not something I've ever seen before & doubtless bad for the engine. Cant be right- but having said that it all sounds & acts fine. I'm not local -and Nige isn't in a position to ask right now, so wondered if anyone here might recommend a sensible Italian oriented spanner monkey to have a looksee? Its way way beyond my skill set, and I'm anxious not to get ripped off on someone else's expense a/c. I'll drive it a short distance, tow it a bit further (although I'm not good at it) to get it sorted.... Thanks chaps, Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabergé Greggs Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I had a pretty good experience with the Gonella brothers in south London. That was a while back now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Cade Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Maybe worth asking on the Fiat Coupe forum- good guys and the same engine. If they don't know no one will.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel bickle Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Ta, I will. Didn't know such a thing existed! Everyday a school day. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
