I am so grateful to you for your concern, Chris Lakin!
I think I really need your help.
My 126 is in Beijing, I bought it from a friend of mine. when it comes to me, its engine wouldn't run, and till now, I don't know how could I repair it.
you know, here is rare 126 in china now, and unluckily, here is rare people who knows its repairing method.
I downloaded some instruction book from website, but its all in Polish or some other language that I can't understand. So when I noticed your maintenace book here, I was so excited.
I'm afraid I would need more help from you if I fortunate enough.

yours sincere asioo

ha! I've downloaded the book just now! great!

Yes, there is about 10 or more 126s still running in Beijing, and we also have a club at here, I'm the one of them. I think we should study to you for more thechnical knowlege and skill.

My car is 126p, imported from Poland in 1987, I loved it very much, I am proud of it. May I upload pictures of my 126?  

I browsed the maintenace fact sheet, it's really useful. further more, how could I be theached of more repairing instructions?

Sorry Chris, I didn't have a wonderful mastering of English, so I would apologize if I say anything wrong.

I don't know what does "off getting" mean, could you tell me?

[126dave]

welcome..well 126's in china..that takes the biscuit eh??  

try to explain the problem with your car,and we could then help......it should not be too hard,the cars are very simple :wink:

what is the chinese name for them?? polish people call them 'maluch'.do you have a ''pet'' name for the little cars??

[126dave]

chris just trying to explain this..........'you are advised to ask us the questions you need to repair your car'.

that means the same as ''your better off getting ''

your english better than my manderin...........

[asioo]

haha, I got it!

In China, people call 126 as "liitle P", "Big head shoe" and so on.

The specific problem of my car is the engine, but......I couldn't describe it very clearly......ok, let me have a try:

My Fiat 126p's engine is in the rear of the car, that should be different from the BIS. The electronic unit and the fuel unit of my car is okey, but the engine don't run. I checked the ignition plug and found that there was no fuel in......in the engine.

[asioo]

Maybe I should explain the problem more clearly ::

[126dave]

the bis and the 126p both have the engines in the rear.

if the ignition is ok,you have sparks at the spark plugs?
 sometimes the fuel pump breaks down,or there might be dirt in the fuel pipe or carburettor  :wink:

[Chris Lakin]

yes i always tell people to get a new fuel pump, 9 times out of 10 its cured their fuel problem.
