The car starts and idles and that's it. Where should I look first? It's been stored for winter in garage. My mechanical skills are sub-par. Not exactly a plus for a Fiat owner(s), but, I enjoy them anyway.....

.

It was started and ran early in the winter a few times with no problems. Hasn't been started in about 4 months. Any help would be appreciated and THANKS!

Check that the air intake hose is secured to the AFM. I had the same problem and noticed the hose had come slightly unattached.

bran100,
THANKS! A couple turns from a screwdriver fixed the problem.
