Hi all, I nearly stripped the sump plug thread last oil change, it juuuuust tightened enough to hold, and so need to perform a thread repair during the next change. But can anybody tell me what the thread size is of the plug? I couldn't find a definitive answer. 1997 Spider Phase 1.5 CF1 2.0TS...

Hi all, hope someone can help me. I have the dreaded airbag light on my 145 - have a TRW2 ECU. Have connected via registered MES, cleared all faults except this one: 05 - Passenger squib circuit. The indicated airbag circuit(s) have an open, short to battery + or ground, or a weak connection...

Hi all. My downpipe is rotten to the point of being practically non-existent. I patched it up to get me by a few months after spending thousands this year on various works, I was just spent out, but it's given up the ghost and I suspect it's terminal this time. I'd love to splash on an...

I want to remove the catalyst and front silencer from 1996 Gtv. Its not a wof issue here in NZ. I understand there is a lambada sensor attached. If I remove the catalyst I guess the sensor becomes redundant. Will this activate any warning light or affect the ECU. Appreciate any advise on...

hi everyone! initially i started suspecting of the crank sensor, as it was a intermittent problem, happened to me once, but now is permanent. had a camshaft sensor error on the ecu, but could not the cause, as my 156 starts with that sensor unplugged. now the ecu displays no errors, although...

Hi all, got an aftermarket cat for little money last year, that was much smaller than the original and has a terrible sound. But it passed MOT when new. This year MOT has failed due to high CO and need a new cat. All I can find online is an used CF2 one on German eBay - can someone confirm...

Hi all, Having spent weeks searching and going round in circles, I wondered if any CF1 owners might be able to help. I need a new MAF on my 98 GTV V6 CF1. The original Bosch housing part number is 0280 217 514. The part code on the sensor itself is 768 11 2A ( Having read that some internals...

Hi Guys, I have recently rebuilt a 1996 146 TI. I bought a cable set to communicate with ECU as the Injection Light goes off after starting the engine but comes back on after a few seconds. I cleared existing codes with AlfaOBD and then restarted engine but same situation. This is the errors...

Given that the flange design on the CF1 exhaust manifold is different do any modifications need to be made to fit the CF3 cylinder head?

I have a GTV Cf1 inlet manifold (to fit the alloy plenum) for a conversion on a later engine and I wanted to know if there was different types of Cf1 manifold, say from a different year or something like a 145. The manifold I have appears to have a built in rail below the main inlets with a...

Hi guys, my oil breather hose ( from head to air take) has split, looking for a replacement, as I haven't got a manual does anyone know the size ? Or a part number? Thanks

Hi all, hoping someone here might be able to help me out. I have a 97 916 Spider 2.0 TS (Phase 1 CF1) with a gearbox problem. I was cruising down the motorway the other day, dropped from 5th to 4th to pass a truck and went back into 5th only to find...well nothing! Came off the clutch and got...

Hi all, can anybody post a link or advise me on purchasing a CF1 3.0 crank sensor for a phase 1 3.0 GTV? Thanks, Phil

Hello all, Firstly, shouts to Graham for answering my earlier post and allowing me to get this far. So, can't work out the easy way to measure the resistance of this solenoid. Found the multiway connector for the ABS but looking at the circuit diagram there doesn't seem to be a way to measure...

Hi I've recently acquired a new manifold for my beloved Gtv. And so it begins lol its an old cf1 with the extra pipe on the exhaust manifold....is this needed as the cf1 type I've been given does not have this and the car is now elevated and exhaust out leaving me massively frustrated :irked:

Folks I have recently acquired a cf1 2.0ts spider with a cf3 engine fitted. The car isnt running correctly and getting it back to standard would remove a number of potential problem areas to try and sort it out. The previous owner removed the airbox and piping and has fitted a K&N type filter...

Hi everyone, After some advice regarding a GTV, please? Of all the Alfas I’ve had over the years I’ve never actually had a GTV so I’m ashamedly inexperienced at this point. I’ve seen locally to me a GTV 2.0 alloy top (CF1) but I suspect it’s got a blown motor. It’s got a good rattle to it and...
