my new fiero

[SPARKPLUG910]

Takes some work but the car starts coming together after a while. Fieros demand dedication haha but they are hot cars when you work out the kinks Im working on my third now its an 86 SE with a 5 speed. Good luck

[ProjectCircaBellum]

If youre still active, I could use you on my forum on turbo-mopar[.]com. I just bought my fiero, 87 2.5 3 speed, exact same as yours. Id love input, you can find it in the garage section

[PeaceLovenHippie1]

the 4cyl ive heard were really bad engines man the 2.4L v6 is where its at man thats my 86 gt has and that thing runs like a dream even after 140,000 miles

[FPGT24]

@PeaceLovenHippie1 its 2.8L V6...not 2.4L...

[nickbrestovansky]

[TechingGear]

[nickbrestovansky]

U live in Ohio? ??

[thewraith2143]

@nickbrestovansky yes i do south of canton in bolivar

[lamarfamar]

you have been screwed my friend

[fastfiero3]

it is the lifters ticking, they do that when they become losened and worn down, ive owned all 5 of my families fieros ronging from 1984 to 1987, every one of the 4cyl. made that same noise, and they all had lifters replaced and they stopped maing the noise.

[thewraith2143]

@fastfiero3 yup i got it checked out a while back and it was a lifter

[TALLSACKwithoutLOVE]

I used to have an 84 with a knock even worse than yours (thought it was valves, but turned out to come from the crankcase area). one day after i wrecked it, i was revving it between 5 and 6k for 15 seconds, then it blew a head gasket. not wat i expected.

[Allante715]

Thats not a normal sound from a Fiero Iron Duke. Sounds like the lifters?

[littlebearish]

I don't know about the rest of the car but the engine noise you are hearing was very common among the 2.5L engine. About 95% of them sounded just like that and would run for ever that way.

[jovanvictoria]

my grand am 91 has 198,009 miles as of today with the 2.5l i4 same one u got there bad ass engines very reliable

[jovanvictoria]

sounds sick =( rod knock possible

[akahappydudes]

i think its just an exaust leak in the manifold

[1stcar280zx]

hey... just put a little money and work into and it would be a pretty cool old car.

[ashmarie088]

crankshaft force balancer

[86fieroEarl]

those engines also have nylon timing gears, Take that turd out and put a better engine in :)

[djjerky454]

sounds like this thing has been run without oil for a bit...

[thewraith2143]

this thing has gon nothing but downhill since i bought it im pretty sure i got scammed

[chaddiewill]

I have a 2m4 myself and there is only two common causes for that ticking in the "iron Duke" that I am aware of.

!. sticky valve lifter

2. timing gears worn...these damn cars don't have a timing belt

I tore my engine down to find that problem

[artistmac]

Ah, that good old Iron Duke tick! It never did go completely away on my Fiero, from 100,000 all the way to when it finally gave up at almost 140,000 miles. Drove my mechanic nuts;-)

[KimiCatastrophe]

that cars pretty hot, but you're hotter. ;)

[thewraith2143]

the video dosent even show me lol

[kvnhmmd]

Gave you a video responce. Our fieros are almost identical, even down to the missing Fiero logo behind the passenger side door! Lol! I have a rebuilt motor in mine, automatic trans, and 113k miles (9k on the motor)

[fierofred]

that ticking sound could be the injector. when I race my fiero with the V8 crossfire with out the air cleaner you can hear it out side the car! Do you need any thing for it? I have lots of parts.

[PDubAP]

wow! that takes me back in time to the good old 2m4 days. thanks for posting.

[thewraith2143]

np ty for watching

[Gunz1x]

my dad's is better

[thewraith2143]

thats cool

[thewraith2143]

thank you

[citidelx]

Aside from teh ticking noise the car seems in pretty good condition. How many miles on the odometer?

[thewraith2143]

ty and 112k miles

[TALLSACKwithoutLOVE]

i have the same damn ticking sound in my '84, except everyone thinks its a rod. nice fiero though
