Hi guys,

I just bought my first fiat last week and picked it up today. It's a 1969 850 spider and I just drove it back from LA and it runs good but i think there might be something weird going on with the gas pedal. Anyways nice to meet you!

Welcome, RR. My first fiat was an 850 spider. I think it was a 68 as well. If you've never owned a rear engine car, there are many things that give it a different feel than a standard car just from the length of cables you need for things like throttle control. For all this to act right, cable mounting points, motor mounts, etc need to be in good shape.
