Hi everyone,

Thanks for all your answers about by "problem" with the SPICA.

As I had said the car had been parked outsise for a year without running or anything else.

Anyway I put a couple of gallons of gas in the tank, started the engine twice and whammo ! it is running perfectly !

So all it was : ga so line : Thanks CHSMADDEN

No all it needs is some TLC after I bring it back home and park it next to theother black 79 Spider i brought back today.
Twins in the driveway.

I am very happy now.

I had totally rebuilt a 1982 Spider (in Europe) and it got stolen in Spain last summer (3000 miles on it and many big ones spent !)

Thanks again to all

Claude
