I seem to be having an issue getting my 81 gtv6 started engine is all stock.
2 week ago I broke a motor mount, replaced it went to start it and POW plenum blew off. I have replaced all hoses! So more more leaks, now when I try to start it, won't start and turns over slower than usual battery is charged, could I possibly thrown out the timing out of wack
I know it doesn't explain the slow turn over but I'm lost!! ]]> budgy http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/alfetta-gtv6-1972-1986/212753-please-help.html For Sale 1975 Alfa Romeo 1300 GTA http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/alfa-romeo-cars-sale-wanted/212745-1975-alfa-romeo-1300-gta.html Sat, 25 May 2013 17:23:02 GMT A friend collector has a rare white/black 1975 1300 GTA for sale.

Saw this beauty on Vann Ness Blvd in San Fran this weekend. They olny made one or two for Le Mans.

This Berlinetta Aerodinamica was conceived for the famed Le Mans race of 1939, and opinions vary as to whether one or two were built. The last time one was seen was in 1940 at the Mille Miglia. The recreated custom bodywork of this car was crafted by Ing. Anderloni, the former head of Carrozzeria Touring, Italy. Its chassis is one of only 33 6C 2500 SS constructed, all for competition racing. Power comes from a 2.5 liter double overhead camshaft triple carb engine of 120 HP through a 4-speed manual transmission. This example is said to be one of the most significant pre-war Alfa Romeo Competition cars to remain.

Does this sound reasonable, and if so, what is the prefered procedure to accomplish this adjustment, e.g., by setting the length of the threaded rod that actuates the clutch "master" cylinder?

It looks like the end of this wire is insulated, so I thought I'd ask.

But since this will be the 2013 Hot Rod Power Tour, I thought I'd ready up the "Italian Stallion" for the trip. Starts in Arlington, Texas (1300 miles from San Diego) and takes eight days to end up in Charlotte, N.C., total from Arlington, c1200 miles. 2300 miles back to S.D. I might be crazy, but it's one of those "bucket list" things. The car has over 30,000 miles on the conversion and just this past year engine was removed and everything refreshed or made new, front to back. Just have to hook up the driving lights, heater (bad valve), and get some newer tires. I have Bridgestone RE-11's on her now, but thinking Yokahama S.Drives for the trip. Tires are new on the market. Anybody have any experience with them? I'll be documenting the trip for the San Diego chapter and will probably bring the car up to the convention in July. Wish me luck! James
