Exactly. I've never had the occasion to use one, but having one in the glove box or door pocket means it's available straight away.
By the way, about fire extinguishers, just a couple of weeks ago I bought two new fire extinguishers, one of which I put into the glove box of the...
I decided on Friday that it was best to have the car sent directly to a Ferrari specialist in Madrid, for several reasons, including that my...
Thanks. Yes, it doesn't seem to have an OBD2 port. I suppose they came later than 1994. I'm still confused about the mechanical issue that led to...
Thanks for the reply, a drink has been drunk! The engine didn't stop when this issue occurred, it kept running, with no strange noises and only a...
Can anyone hazard a guess as to what has happened with my 1994 456? I was returning home this afternoon, engine fully warmed up, on the...
Well, I took the car to work today, and it seemed a little better, but not a complete cure. I am thinking that I have an amount of clutch drag all...
I was going to ask what electronic diagnosis would mean in this instance; it makes sense it would be to equalize those two voltages. I didn't...
Thanks guys, I'll try adjusting it down a bit on the throttle bodies and will report back.
What rpm should a 456 idle at? Mine idles at 1300; is that the norm? It seems high to me. Is there any idle speed adjustment possible? I don't see...
That went much better. Thanks for that piece of vital information on the caps, Bart! So yes, one needs to connect the pressure bleeder on the left...
I'm going to try bleeding from the other cap right now. I thought that the two halves must communicate internally. Are they two entirely separate...
I finally got around to bleeding the clutch today. And now I'm confused. I used a pressure bleeder (mine was from Gunson 'easy bleed'). The first...
I thought I should report back success in fixing this issue. I ended up ordering from Eurospares in the UK all three pins I reported above...
Yes, I am starting to think that all the gear change symptoms I'm experiencing could be from a slight clutch drag when the car is warmed up. I...
I need to play with it a bit; my recollection is that it feels pretty normal, neither engaging very soon nor very late, but I hadn't really...
Thanks. I'll need to buy some new fluid. It's always months, years, between one time when I need brake fluid and the next, and it's not worth...
OK, thanks. Well, I'll bleed it and see whether that fixes the problem. Now to get some clutch fluid first.
Yes, I need to look at the clutch as possibly being involved in the problem. So I should bleed it - I'll do that. Anything else I can check or...
This is a good idea, thanks. Several times now when I have got to my destination I'ver found it nigh on impossible to engage either first or...
