Title: WTB: Earlier V6 Crank Angle Sensor
Post by: Duk on April 12, 2012, 10:19:46 AM
A bit hopeful here, but I'm after a crank angle sensor for the 12 valve V6, so typically from the 164 but a Potenziata (hahahaha  ::)) 1 would do the job too.

Research says that I won't be successful with using a hall effect sensor with the Bosch 60-2 wheel (programmable computer) because there isn't enough gap between the teeth (Motec says 10mm gap minimum with the sensor I'm using and the Bosch wheel has about 5mm).

So if anyone out there in Alfa land has 1 and is prepared to sell, great :D. Other wise it's off to eBay and probably something from an Audi or similar.

I have one sitting in my garage. Off an early 12-valve 164. Or maybe a moronic Milano/75. Have a photo of it on my phone. Will post when back in Aus.

Some have photos of family, some holiday snaps, some of their car....and some of have pics of a crank angle sensor from a 164 V6 they have lying around in the garage.  Love it Aggie!!

Duk,

I may have one - will check to see if I have used it or not or it may just be lying around still.
Cheers :)

Adaptronic E420c.
I just mentioned Motec 'cause I tripped over good info on their website about the Honeywell hall effect sensor. I bought mine from DIYautotune (in America) along with other stuff, tho.
Andy from Adaptronic also said that a hall effect sensor is very unlikely to work with 60-2 wheel.

Cheers to you guys who have replied. I also got 2 PM's just after posting this WTB  ;D
