The GT4 has much more of a "classic" Ferrari interior. It looks & feels 60's to me. The Mondial (which I have) is sort of "clunky modern" inside...
Check before getting it done whether it will be done cold or hot (esp the leak-down testing). I've seen much discussion on this, & I think the...
No way is it 17,000 miles IMO. Note that the dealer says "17,000 on the odometer" and no mention of service records, etc. Surely it would have...
Todd, Your standard wheels are a metric design and WILL ONLY TAKE MICHELIN TRX TYRES. The TRX design was a concept developed by Michelin in...
Best to find a re-gas contractor. Take your originals to him & get him to regas to spec & replace the seal. He will need the info printed on the...
Thanks a bunch for the info. FYI I was under the car last night & saw that the heater intake hose (that runs from the heater valve in the...

Is there a link to this publication somewhere?
Have had my 87 3.2 (Mondial) for about 6 months & done 2500km. Has always been a well-maintained car but has "failed to proceed" 5 times in the...
Only if you haven't properly fitted the latex crank-nose sleeve.
1987 manual specifies 98 octane, but that would be a Euro, etc rating, not US. 4-star or 5-star is also specifed, but same comment (Euro). In...

Certainly zertec! I see now that the small gauges are all one piece with the odo/clock unit. How is the RHS of that unit held in-place? That is...
Also be aware of painted or undersealed surfaces. You want a good connection to grounded bare-metal, such as a nice bolt-head off the chassis.
M.James, Latest rad caps are uprated to 1.1 (1,1) bar = 15.96psi, say 16psi. When I recently went from an old 0.9 bar cap (with distorted...
OK, got the tach & speedo sorted, but the fixing mechanism is just so cheap - 4 small gauge screws per instrument trying to hold into a fibreglass...
and the Winner is ...........................Michael (thecarreaper)!
Wouldn't reversing the coil LT wires also reverse the direction of the sparking current, meaning that the plugs spark TO the electrode rather than...
Do you mean popping the wiper arms off & putting some oil down between the splined spindle & the housing?
How slow are 3x8/Mondial wipers supposed to be? I mean is the period supposed to be measured in geological ages? When lifted "off glass" mine...
