Re: Removing a stuck steering wheel

All good, a $20 puller from Amazon did the trick. So much that the wheel almost hit me in the face when it sprang off. Appreciate all the advice on this forum, great to know that we have this forum and its filled with very knowledgeable owners and enthusiasts.

Re: Removing a stuck steering wheel

I've found a few earlier threads on this topic and it reads like I need to buy a puller - any advice as to which one I should buy?

Re: nearly finished restoration: 67 Fiat Dino Spider

I am restoring the interior and convertible top of my 1967 Dino and was curious how you sourced replacement parts for the convertible top? We ordered the canvas top from Dino Parts but we are also in need of the bows that are woven into the top and provide the structure. The originals are badly dama...

Re: Does a 1967 Dino Spider 2.0 have a lever to control idle?

Does a 1967 Series 1 car have the same levers/pulls?

Fiat made so many design iterations that I always have to ask whether someone is explaining a series 1 or series 2 car.

Gaelicguy.

Naive question but how is the air box choke expected to be used/operated? Should the airbox flap be closed when I am attempting to start the car?

Does a 1967 Dino Spider 2.0 have a lever to control idle?

My 1967 spider has a lever arm on the lower left side pf steering wheel that controls the flaps on the air box (this is seemingly useless) but I wasn't sure if one of the other levers controls the idle/throttle bar on the carbs? If it does, mine may not be connected properly. Thanks!

67 Dino Spider Convertible Top Color

I have a green 67 (color code 388) and the convertible top is currently beige which is lighter in color than the brownish/orange interior. I would better describe the top as resembling khaki. What is the correct color of the top as it was shipped from factory? Somone told me that it was likely a bla...
