I believe there is that button, like a old door lock that is right by the ignition switch, that you push in to get the ignition to go all of the way back. I had one of these back in the mid 90s, loved the little car. Traveled from Oklahoma to California and Arizona a couple of times.

Taking a car like the Fiero on a road trip like this sounds amazing! I live in Florida and about 3 times a year a drive my sister to San Diego from Pensacola, I love the drive but I’d like to tackle it as a solo drive.

.I bought a1984 video brand new in 84. At 25000 miles the engine was replaced due to porosity in the block casting which allowed coolant to enter the combustion chamber. At 50000 miles it was replaced again for the same reason.

I got my ‘84 Fiero when it was 4 years old and I was 17 years old. I used to look at it and wonder if someday people would be restoring them. I guess I now have my answer! Looking at this car now “showing it’s age” at 40 years old really makes me feel old! It should be a fun car to play around with!

Hey CT, nice! Try Magic Eraser on exterior paint and interior also. Option would be perhaps distilled water and very small amount of bleach to clean interior plastic.

Dude! Theres a lever BEHIND the key..you have to push it down to turn ignition key off then pull out key.

cowl is rotted out I'm sure it has a ton of rust in other areas. If the motor spins over I can get these to run in about a half of a day.

I’ve had several GM stick shifts and I think you may need to have the trans in reverse with the brake depressed to turn the key to lock. I could be wrong but there will be some combo needed.

Ajax and a good brush 👌

Keep ur coolant tubes from being bent never jack under the body. All ways keep ur radiator clean and bug free. If u ever put new antifreeze in make u put the front of the car in the air so no air bubbles are trapped. They maybe a air bleeder on the thermostat housing just fill it up and and open the bleeder.on ur headlights under ur hood they should b 2 relays they control ur up and down of ur headlight doors. Pontiac firebird head light doors should be the same. If u wonder why there holes in seat headrest those are speakers.some models had a sub woofer on the passenger side under the dash and console but I think they were on the v6 gt models. If u need parts u can go to the Fiero store hey have everything you need for ur fiero.i wish u were closer to me here in Maine I'd help u with it and I'd have u help me on my 66 beetle need some welding done. If u ever need me for anything got my profile on Facebook. Name David randell my profile pic is a blue beetle

​@@CTmoog as far as i know, carwashing in Germany is mostly prohibited. You can wash your car just in the defined spots, like car wash stations (by hand or with a pressure washer, with separated soap head), or gas stations where is a possibility of using a car wash machine. Washing car at home (in your yard) or street in front of your house is forbidden. You can pay a visible amount of money as a fine. I think it is for the environment protection. Waste water can be handled properly in the sewers by the water companies... I am living outside of Germany, but in Europe.

Würde ich mein Auto in Deutschland auf der Strasse so waschen, wären bis zu 5.000 Euro Strafe fällig ;-)

Dear Reader, Why does Mr. CT never finishes a project? He has the skills, and could even sell the finished cars if he would wish so. But from my point of view he hasn't finished one car he has embarked on. So after a while you start to lose interest, not because he makes bad video's. No his video's are interesting and he knows quit a lot about the cars, but you want to see a project finished, and Mr. CT seems not to reach this point at any of his projects.
