Hello all, I just got a '84 Fiero SE yesterday, sitting for 20 years so I have a feeling I will be posting quite a bit on here... Anyways, I just have a few questions for some first fixes with the Fiero. I did not get a lug nut key with it, so is there a place I can buy a suitable replacement, or is there another way to get them off? Also, having sit for that long, many of the lines have had dry rot, and so cracks and even holes. What size tubes would work? I have heard you can even get them at autozone, as it is a 4-cylinder model. Thanks for looking!

A lot is standard GM stuff so RockAuto.com for the common stuff, or even the local auto parts store. The mall on here for a lot of stuff Flea bay but can be expensive www.RodneyDickman.com www.fierostore.com
------------------ Anything I might say is probably worth what you paid for it, so treat it accordingly!
Exactly which lines are you talking about? Fuel? Brakes? The fiero store is your friend as I think you can get both there.
The ones I have seen so far are vaccum lines, many of them with holes and cracks. I'm not sure about brake or fuel lines, but I have heard generic ones work for vaccum lines and fuel lines for the 4 cylinder, I'm just not sure of the size of the tubes the Fiero uses. If there are any Fiero specific ones I need, I definitely wouldn't mind getting them from the Fiero store, but if I can use less expensive generic ones, I would rather use those, financially at least. - The spider webs have since been cleaned.

If this car has sat for 20 years, most anything rubber will probably be brittle and cracked. You should probably replace anything rubber that looks suspect. (belts, hoses, etc.)
This will also lead you to, "Well, as long as I'm in here, I might as well replace/repair.....(fill in the blank)". -an endless process.

My car sat for 29 years, I sure would like to know where, it looks like it just rolled off the line.. Good luck to the OP getting it going..
