Now how do I get it back in? There are two posts that appear to attach to something, but can't find out what. Any help will be really appreciated.

Trying to get this alfetta started and the fuel pump is not running when I turn the switch. If someone has a troubleshooting recomendation that would be great. Could be the column switch, a fuse, the pump, a broken wire etc. Any help would be great.



"Fuel pump still not working. The car has no inertia switch as can be seen in the first picture. Next two pictures show the fuse box and the fuel pump. Fuses seem fine. What gouunds do I need to check? Are there any other things I need to check before taking off the fuel pump? I can swap over the one from the black alfetta to determine if it is an inop fuel pump if need be. I don't have a volt meter/ohm meter but can get one so is anybody has instructions on what to check with that please post as well. With the missing inertia switch I think (guessing) that somebody just jumped the wire so that it is always "on"?"

In the dark it is hard to tell when I have shifted from or into drive or other gears as there is no illumination.
Under the cover below the shift stick there is a black rubber mount attached to the stick with two black wires going to it. My guess is that this should have a bulb holder and bulb to illuminate the strip with R,N,D,2,1 which is directly above.
Or is this something to do with the start inhibitor that won't allow the car to start in Drive mode?

These are the black canisters that capture the oil vapors from the cam cover. Nearly every one of these that I've seen has been rusted away and I have not found a source for replacements.

Does anyone have interest in a new one? If so, would you prefer carbon steel (as stock) or stainless?

Let me know,

I have the standard catalog replacement window cranks right now, and they work fine, but my door handles are non-standard and very cool looking. The door handles are not from a Guilia and frankly, I have no idea what they're from but I like them.

They're aluminum rather than chrome and a much older style look than the modern looking window cranks. They're sort of a volcano shape (yeah, but that's the best image I can think of right now) with the lever coming out of one side.

So, rather than replace these pretties with new chrome and black catalog handles, I thought I'd look for older style window cranks. Does anyone know if the splines on the window mechanism are a match with any other makes?
Could I use some cranks off an old Porsche, BMW, or even VW if I find something I like that matches my door levers?

I love this bulletin board - the collective mind knows everything! :D


Thanks guys! ]]> Spider (1966-Up) Lokki http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/spider-1966-up/158849-window-cranks-what-besides-iap-fits.html 164: Color Code Bumpers http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/164-168-1991-1995/158848-164-color-code-bumpers.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:43:18 GMT Hi guys,
while I was on vacation a crazy driver decided to ram her ugly green Seat into my 92' 164 QV .
Now the car needs a paint job on the rear part, including the bumper which is what I need the color code of.

I'm not painting the front bumper and the skirts, too, since unfortunately money matters to me...it's important that I get the original code or at least one that comes as close as possible (in the latter case I'd consider having all plastic parts repainted, but only if you can tell the color difference easily)

once again thank you in advance ]]> McBeth-164QV http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/164-168-1991-1995/158848-164-color-code-bumpers.html Opions on this 2000 spider on Ebay? http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/1900-2000-2600-1950-1968/158847-opions-2000-spider-ebay.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:17:49 GMT Alfa Romeo : Spider:eBay Motors (item 130345704191 end time Nov-25-09 12:54:33 PST)]]> Has anyone seen this car in person?
