cyl

Last weekend I replaced the alternator on my Phase 1 TS Spider. Instead of removing it from below (as per the workshop manual), I removed if from above - which necessitated removing the inlet manifold/airbox. Other items that are accessible once you’ve removed the airbox include the starter...

Hi! My steering rack is showing a bit of vertical play in it. It's due to change soo I was wondering, if it would be possible to use rack from 4 cyl to reduce turning circle. Is there a way to limit the turning to the exact point before wheels start grinding agains wheel arches? Does it mess...

Hi, I've fitted a new clutch slave cylinder to my 156 2.5 V6 and noticed that it's a loose fit in the bracket. Does that sound right or should it be a push fit? It's the correct cylinder. Cheers

Just wondered if to bleed the slave on the 147 you release the clip then pull the pipe out to the first notch then pump the pedal or is it a different method ? Does it need to be running or not? Any advice would be great:thumbs:

Evening all ( or should I now say morning lol ) On my latest 147 I have a misfire on cylinder 3, so the first thing I did was change the coil packs from 3 and 4 over reset the codes using android torque to see if the coil pack was shot and its still reporting as misfire on cylinder 3. Could...

Hi guys Im just running some OBDII software on my car to find out the cause of a few issues. I have a misfire on cylinder 3 so I am going to eliminate the coil pack or the plugs but which is cyl 3 please....is it 3 from the left of the engine as you look down or 3 from the right of the engine?

Quick question folks -- Does anybody know if the GTA runs a different size master cyl. and brake servo to regular 156s ? EDIT: Just had a bit of a rummage on EPER, and it appears they are different. Does anybody know the differences in size between the different versions of the master cyl., say...

i was wondering if anyone ever tried to change gearbox from 5 speed to 6 speed in 4 cylinder twin spark engine, i know that replacing gearbox from a gta is not working as it will not have space to the (lower i thing) wishbones... so we need to find another "donor" as far as i know only the fiat...

Article in Evo Pg77 about the Busso Engine. Classed as the world's best sounding 6 cylinder engine ever. Doesn't it make you feel proud to be an owner of such an engine? :cool: Also Alfa 8c is part of the discussion for the best sounding engine.

Looking at the front of the engine the LEFT Front & RIGHT Rear have compression. The 2 without are Left Rear & RIGHT Front 0 bar <--> 6 bar 6 bar < --> 0 bar The battery I was using was weak & therefore not turning over the engine very fast, i reckon that's why the 2 are showing 6 bar, would...

As per my other thread my clutch slave cylinder went last night leaving my biting point somewhere under the level of the floor. However sourcing a replacement has been difficult. Autolusso dont have one, Central Auto Supplies in leighton buzzard can get one in 2-3 days and the cost is only...

Hi Guys, I have just bought a poorly 156 estate 1.6 ts 2001 y reg, 53k miles, fsh!, The car was badly misfiring and running rough. I have checked the compression on all cylinders and come back with 1 - 25psi, 2 - 125 psi, 3 - 125psi, 4 - zero psi. I havent checked the timing as yet because i am...

Hi Selling my Alfa 156 2,4 JTD 5 cylinder 20 Valve. I have been asked what power output the engine is, I can't find this info on any documentation. Does anybody know the power or where to find it. Regards Paul

What’s the biggest engine size for the 5 cyl diesel? Are the 2.8 ltr and 3.0 ltr Ducato engines 5 cyl units? If so then; Can you imagine, using the 3.0 Ducato block with the 20 valve head and the variable Turbo from the 159 JTD? :rolleyes: With a little rolling road ECU tuning, 300bhp and...
