hi all,
recently took delivery of my 75 3.0. for reasons which arent clear at the moment it is running (and sounding) like a massey ferguson tractor. rough as guts and bugger all power.
car is with mechanic for rego purposes. once registered and back on the road I will need to address why it is running like a three legged dog.
can anybody assist??? what do I need to look at to try and solve this problem. not happy.
If it's at a mechanic, there opinion on a course of action would be valuable.
From here, it sounds like it's not using all 6 cylinders..
brad, i suspect you are right. the mechanic who has the car is not, i suspect, a bloke who knows alfas inside out. i will have to find another who specialises in alfas, probably monza motors or beninca.
another problem the headlights throw out less light than a candle. what options are there to improve that ie new globes, re-wiring etc?
cheers
how is the oil level, i recall something a little like this when i did the rear main oil seal it ran like a dog and had the power of a soggy biscuit
check that all the injector hats are connected
You just need to find a mechanic who knows L jet if you aren't comfortable working on it yourself, L jet is fundamentally the same no matter which car it is on.
There could be a lot of small things all contributing.
Regards, Andrew.
