I was given an Alfa 33 1.5 ie last year, the car is tatty but very restorable, the only thing I cant sort out is that I have no spark at the plugs, so ive been working through it, replacing components, to date that included distributor, coil, ignition amp, ecu, but still no spark, so then I...

Hi, Presently the car has a starting issue and we've decided to replace the ignition leads, cap, rotor, condenser, points and coil, (plugs already new) so at least we know that side of it is "as it should be". It'll either cure it or at least take it out the equation. The car doesn't get started...

Does anyone know whether it's possible to fit a later Series 3 (1980s) Spider distributor into an earlier Series 2 (1970s) car and will it work? Many thanks, Alan

WANTED I need a new or good working complete distributor Mine is leaking oil! at the seal with the camshaft

There has been a lot of discussion in this thread: http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/alfa-33-sud-andamp-sprint/1056730-alfasud-1-5-liter-engine-ignition-problems-help-please.html about maybe fitting a 123ignition distributor to our boxer engines. I don't think anyone on there has actually done it...

How do I remove the centrifugal weights plate under the rotor arm so that I can check/clean the points gap? I have difficultly starting my '73 2000 GTV because of a weak spark. Thanks, Andy

Hello all- I'm a reader rather than a poster, but I have a question. I own a rather nice Alfasud Sprint that I restored 5 years ago. It has a 33 1.7 8 valve with an engine back exhaust and manifold that Shrew made for me. The bigger manifold/exhaust has meant that the car has needed a bit of...

Hi there As the title says really. Im having problem with the distributor getting wet with oil and dripping down the cap. I think its due to worn distributor shaft seal. I cant get the seal locally. I dont even know how it looks like. I understand the shaft is 10mm in dia. but until I get a...

Can anyone confirm that this is the correct way to wire an alfasud ignition module. Sorry for the crude picture.

I know i have asked at the end of another thread but thought others might see this way. I have an engine with no loom or ignition module. I see the early alfa's run on a JFU4 dizzy and wired very simply. is there an alternative dizzy available to wire this way or is there any wiring diagrammes...

I have just picked up an alfa engine marked AS30128 I Believe to be from a 1.5 ti/sprint it also has 1979 stamped on it. The carbs are 36 IDF44's would this be correct. I am in need of info for the correct distributor. The marks on the distributor it has are Bosch 050 0237 005 004 JG FUD4 Is...

After speaking to someone, the cause of my hesitant acceleration may not be carb/fuel related but the distributor. With the strobe gun I can see that the timing mark isn't advancing when the revs increase which seems to point to the weights in the distributor being gunked and not being able to...

Hello, I have a Marelli distributor with the centrifugal mechanism above the contact breaker (built-in in the rotor). Because I have ingnition problems (after correct stroboscopic alignment the timing changes), I would like to check the contact breaker too. However, i can not pull the rotor...

I wanted to start a new thread more related to this technical question. I recently came across an Alfa romeo manual with instructions of how to modify and adjust the advance curve of a Bosch distributor. After removing several parts, (interrupter,stator plate, circlips etc) you have access...

Hi while cleaning my injectors I managed to screw the thread on my Common rail fuel distributor pipe. One of the outlets that the smaller injector pipes connect to. These are crazy priced to replace brand new. Does anyone know where I can maybe get a used one at a sensible price. Its for a 57...

Hi all, The Marelli dual point distributor was removed from my 77 Spider by the PO. I have replaced all the proper components and installed the distributor. My question is the two wires that connect to the studs on opposite sides of the distributor were not marked as to which one connects on...
