Ron, your steering wheel is most definitely not a stock 1986 USA Testarossa Momo steering wheel. EDoug
3of9, did you look closely at the C11 connector. Rifledriver's original recommendation was to "bypass" the individual connector inside C11 with a...
Francois, you might consider using the higher lift force Mondial rear struts on the front of the TR. Highly recommended on the site here and many...
Sunny, take a look at pages E33 to E35 of the Testarossa WSM to start with. EDoug
Stefan, although your 512TR shift shaft is slightly different from my 1986 Testarossa, below are a couple pics from my shift shaft seal...
Bo, search and you will find tons of info on this site. Use of the higher lift force Mondial struts work great on my '86 Testarossa front and are...
Teeter, not sure if you have the plunger unstuck yet, but assuming that your BBi FD is essentially the same as my '86 Testarossa, here are a...

James, yes you got it and are not missing something (at least on my 1986 Testarossa). Tap tap tap and then alternate to the second hole and tap...
James, also look at page F13 of the Testarossa Workshop Manual. It provides the steps for "replacing front bearings," so you don't need to follow...
Another data point for a blown TR diff.
A&W, one way to know for sure if all front and rear hoses on your Euro '88 should be the same length is to remove a front hose and use a 375mm...
