Dear AGM155, thanks so much for those instructions and pics - now all I need is a free hour or two and of course THAT SOLENOID UNIT. I would like to say how amazed I am that anyone could be so helpful to a stranger - just because they own an Alfa. In Poland, the Alfa joke runs: Why don't Alfa drivers flash their lights or in any other way salute each other on the road? Because they will have already greeted each other in the breakdown garage earlier in the day.... haha
WHICH I DONT FIND particularly fair, as all the problems with my car (2001) were with it when I bought it and none have occurred since, except my alloys need rebalanced becos of potholes. And the only serious problem (because the car stood unused for over a year) was that the "westgate" (which opens and closes in the turbocharger) got stiff and would remain locked in an open/close position (loss of power and the engine STOP light shows on dashboard). Lots of WD40 have solved the problem for the moment.
BEST WISHES and SZEROKIEJ DROGI to YOU
