Title: Been giving the 131 a daily work out
Post by: jasonh131 on November 21, 2009, 09:19:45 PM
Been driving the to  car work for a few days this week , as the wife's ulysse starter gave up so i lent her my seicento scewy to do the school run almost in relay and i had to use the 131 , then get a phone call the clutch cable gone on the schewy ,thats 2 cars out of action.
 so before i could diagnose the uly' i had to race round get a cable and fix that, all evening , next evening stirpe down the uly and diagnose the starter find cheap one and fit on the weekend  .
 so the good ole relyable 131 got me to work, the seat  :)stuffing has worn away feeling the bar behind  at bottom,can you strip down the seats and change the back, are they handed , or is the rare brown check seat out there  some where..,
 And the cars accelleration  feels like what  i can only describe as fluffy when trying  smooth gentle
 procress , more rapid progress not noticeable, possibley blocked progresseion jet as ive noticed not even an inline filter ..or electrical

I don't think the foam filling is sided so you should be able to swap the passenger side to the drivers side. I'm sure there will be somebody with some seat foam going spare. Unfortunately I don't think I have any.
