I just put new 65 amp alternator in my 81 fiat spider today. Drove a bit and it stalled , started and stalled , finally after 15 min wait it started and made it home. Do you think new alternator affected my ICM ? I think my ICM is about 3 years old , it’s a GM part. Could an ICM start to fail and be erratic ?? Great video, thank you for it!!
Hi, maybe you have some ideas on an issue I have with my spider, same year and engine as yours, it starts fine when cold but after running until normal temp if I turn off it wont re-start? I need to disconnect the relay under the right side of dashboard and it re-starts then connect the relay, I replaced the temp sensors and no joy? What should I check next? Coil is new
I did find this answer, could it be related to the AFM?; I had a similar problem that turned out to be a pooched fuel pump. To test for it, when the car is hot and won't start, you need to get the top of your AFM off, turn the key to the start position and move the AFM arrow slightly (to open the AFM). If the fuel pump is OK, you will hear it start pumping. If it doesn't start pumping, it's NFG.
Great video! I just bought a 81 Fiat that wont start.. so i will start with this video!
Good to learn that the module is an off-the-shelf Ac/Delco part.
Yep any 4pin GM style ICM would work.
