Testarossa timing belts (Major) on a QuickJack ?

Test sensors; both measure approx 685 Ohm resistance.

Tachometer relay; jumper 30-87 and pumps rubbing but no dash lamps. No start though, fuel is and was precept.
Pump Fuse got really hot and I don’t think I could leave that jumper for very long.

I guess I will buy a new tacho relay, after I pulled it dash lamps have been out with relay out or jumper.

 

The ignition switch was the problem, opened and cleaned and lights came back and it fired up right away!

I have one last item I need to install, forgot where to goes though. I think it was sitting somewhere in the front of the engine under the car, nope? Any ideas?

I have no idea, my memory told me it was under the car somewhere below the alternator. Maybe it was something with the Euro to US conversion or they put the foglight bracket in wrong location at last "major".

Am going to check and verify/double check all connectors and bolts tonight, then back her off the lift and store for spring 2023. Going to do the final tuning of the injection / K-Jet settings next year, prefer to do that outdoors as my rather small exhaust extractor fan is struggling when the TR is at 2000 rpm. Over here we are now at minus a few to 5 Celsius above freezing until March.

Have had her for 10 years this Christmas and it is time to drive. I may pass her on to a new owner that will drive her more though, the smaller cars is really what I enjoy the most. Small town with small roads => small cars but maybe the Testarossa proves me wrong. It's a lovely car to fiddle with and maybe it will surprise me. Looking forward to verify.

Happy motoring!
