Welcome to the doo-doo zone, and it sounds like youre in neck deep!

I'm assuming you have an early car, since the later switches had a harness soldered to the contacts.
The diagram shows the light blue/black wire on #15, black on #30/1,
red on #50, blue/red on INT, black on INT, brown on #30

What year is it? You may have a weak fuel pump and not getting enough fuel or worn points and not getting enough spark.

Dude, get yourself an Fiat owner's manual and go through the wire diagrams. It will take alot of patience but worth it. Good luck!

In a panic situation, no amount of manuals and diagrams will suffice. Yes, get them, but also answer another guys question if you can.

and, once you are back up and running.....i would highly recommend a spare set of keys hidden beneath the hood. that way, you've prevented yourself from getting stranded again.

i know for a fact that this one works.....just ask everyone at FFO '06....they watched me dance around for 15 minutes before I broke out my hide-a-keys.

I agree - sounds more like fuel to me, having fuel is not the same as having enough to run, particularly if Fuel Injected - year/motor/trans would be really useful. If its cranking and sparking (consistently), then you either don't have enough fuel, enough air or you have fouled plugs. Most common is a plugged fuel filter or a failing fuel pump (sometimes both, a clogged filter puts extra strain on a pump causing it to fail prematurely)
All the best,

I had no time to take any pics of my Spidey. But it's a comin. I do have pics of my first car I brought back from the dead, a 78 Camaro. Then dumped her for a 83 CJ-Jeep (another zombie car I brought back to life). Then a 64 Lincoln, I miss that one
