Feb 16, 2010 — Tony. :yeahthat: A few places to check for rust: Open the front boot (trunk) cover and in the corners there are cover plates over where the headlight motors are.

What engines fit X1/9? - The FIAT Forum
May 12, 2004 — Apr 13, 2005. #11. The 1372 engine is not as easy as the 1301 due to the clearance needed for the turbo, The 1301 is meant to be the better engine and you can do more to them you will have fun with the gearbox internals from the uno box if you have the correct one and the casing from the X19.

Fluid capacities and types | FIAT X1/9 | The FIAT Forum
Feb 4, 2008 — Jan 22, 2010. #9. Engine oil should be 4.5 litres and coolant is 11.6 litres. About 4.0 litres is right for the gearbox but basically fill till it starts to come out the filler hole. If you start to work on the rear calipers note the pistons have to be screwed out as they screw on to handbrake (emergency brake) plunger.

Dec 23, 2002 — 108. Points. 36. Location. Houston, Tx, USA. May 17, 2003. #6. Why not just simply cut the factory spring you have if you are not looking to increase the springs stiffness...

Weber DCOM's v. IDF's for X19 | FIAT X1/9 | The FIAT Forum
May 17, 2007. #1. In my infinite wisdom I purchased a pair of Weber 40 DCOM Carburettors from Ebay with the vision of fitting them on my X. From what Im told the DCOM is a newer version of the DCOE, and it pretty much the same carb. However, fitting these to the car is going to be quite complex, as they are a sidedraught type carb.

Modifying X1/9 struts for gas inserts - The FIAT Forum
Jul 10, 2008 — Location. Flixton, Manchester. Oct 22, 2008. #2. The rabbit inserts you have are the standard replacements used by x1/9 owners in the states. They don't normally have much trouble with them but it sounds like the ones you have are either stiffer as you describe or the old x1/9 struts are that far gone that they just feel much softer than normal.
