Nice illustration work Mike!
You guys and your metric system! ;-) Kidding, I'd prefer metric if I wasn't so used to English. I wouldn't double-up the thinner gaskets. From...
No problem. Look in the spare parts manual in section 10. You'll see that the "puck" is "sandwiched" between two gaskets. # 70 & 71. I didn't...
It looks like a gasket leak. In a lot of cases, once a gasket is crushed into place it should be replaced if then taken apart again - especially...
I'd agree about it affecting more than one cylinder but since that port is so close to that carb and its such an easy thing to check... There...
Things to check from easiest to hardest. Make sure there are no manifold vacuum ports open to the atmosphere. Mine has a port near that carb...

Here in New York we have large temperature swings throughout the seasons and I've never had a fuel leak as you are describing. Maybe too much fuel...
LOL Yup, 10 liters of burning hot oil comes flying out at you in like 3 seconds!
I just verified 17mm. Same one I used for a 1985 Bertone I owned years ago. Tony
I did this pump change quite a few years ago and my mechanic gave me that coolant hose. I'm assuming that he called MIE and they told him which...
Did you notice if you were able to feel heat from the HVAC unit? Just curious. When I did my Water Pump on my '79. A trusted mechanic had...
Hi Nick, Nice work! I'm wondering if simply bending the float lever bar down 4 inches would give the same results? Either way after a...
Not everything is on the MIE website. I usually just call or send an e-mail to Stuart when I need parts. t
Hi and welcome. I never needed to play with the fuel tank because the car hasn't sat for any length of time so I can't help much more than...
