There is a great YouTube video I watched about removing the plenum that emphasized sliding paper over the intakes so those washers don’t fall in....
All of those things ( leaks, puddling). When you say catastrophically fail, what do you mean? Just the part needs to be replaced? Engine was...
It was visibly coming from around the cover. It did smell sweet like coolant. Some drips looked more like oil.
Smoke coming from around “quattrovalvole” cover and some leaks. There was also some hissing. Gasket? Thoughts?
Move complete! You are right…soooo hot! QV thankfully was delivered after company seemed to have “lost it” lol! Was waiting to see it on Haggerty!
Thank you for your replies! My QV needs a belt change and my location in Iowa has not helped my cause. Should have the car there by the end of July!
I have a 1985 308 QV and am moving to Dallas area. Are there some good independent shops in the area? Needing a belt service soon. Thanks!
Actually planning on doing several things which include fuel filter, distributed caps, plugs and wires, etc. But, based on what I have read,...

Instead of rock chip paint, could that be the 3M clear protective film? (like the clear bras) Kind of looks like it in the pics.
I may try to bring my 308QV if it stays Oct 3. Amazingly fun road to drive!
I had a Jimmy Buffett concert conflict...so had to do that. Are there pics posted?
Another factor (in my opinion) These cars are clearly loved by their owners which puts a price on them not necessarily reflective of the market...
Agreed. Mine has been a daily driver since May for everything from errands to road trips. Over 1000 miles. The more I drive it, the better it...
My 85 has its "slow down" light as a circular opposite of the seatbelt light. I have seen others that are lower to the right of the steering...
