  1. Engine Repair, Diagnostics & Rebuilding
    Just wanted to point out that my oil post, and subsequent thread, was deleted. Wasn’t even given a reason. It’s pretty ridiculous. I would steer clear of this site if it weren’t effectively the only Alfa Romeo site there is. The mod(s) that took it down should be ashamed of himself. Based on...
  2. Alfetta & GTV6 (1972-1986)
    Ok I’ll make this quick: Here’s something I found last night while replacing my valve covers. it is located on the driver side towards the firewall (so this’d be cylinder 6 then). There is some sort of “minor” oil leak below the stud or around it? I currently don’t know where this is...
  3. Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)
    On my quest to fix the leaked on my ‘83 Spider, the diff sump gasket was one of many items. I made a video of how to change the oil and gasket in the diff as part of basic maintenance. Pretty basic. Hope this helps!

  5. Production Alfas (1992-2016) - [CA/USA Excluded]
    Hey guys, hope to get some experienced input on the issue I have with my Brera made in 2010, which I bought few months ago in Germany with mileage of around 122000 km (now it’s already around 128000 km). So the issue is that oil burns very fast if I drive at 100+ speed, but doesn’t burn if I...
  6. Engine Repair, Diagnostics & Rebuilding
    Hello, I have G 2011 1750TBI and I drive it for ~6k kms to that point. I bought it on 175k km and I checked the oil today. It is a little bit under the middle mark of the stick. Is that normal for that engine because I couldn't find anything about that. It is probably like 1/2 liter for that...
  7. 164 & 168 (1991-1995)
    Hi, Am having a bit of an on-going issue with my 24v 3.0 1995 manual 164. When first start the car, if it has been standing for a few days (the longer the worse the symptom), it takes a moment for the oil pressure to build - and then it goes over centre on the dial, to about 5 bar, until the...
  8. 164 & 168 (1991-1995)
    Hi, Have a 1995 164 3.0 24v manual and am hoping this is a needless query but this happened today: Started the car, oil pressure light stayed on but oil pressure needle rose OK. After few seconds the light went out and assumed faulty sender (once came on at 70mph 10 years ago - again gauge...

    Anyone have a positive or negative experience running this synthetic (partially synthetic?) Fiat Selenia HPX 20W50 oil in their Alfa? Claims to reduce oil consumption by 50% and cut down on emission fumes. I don’t notice muhc oil consumption on a daily / weekend drive basis, however, during...
  10. Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)
    I recently purchased a 1986 Alfa Spider Veloce and I was curious as to what is the best engine oil I should use. The manual says 10w-50, but I've also read in various books and publications that 15W-50 or 20W-50 is fine as well. Also, should I use traditional oil or synthetic oil?

    I'm in need of the hard line that connects from the oil pressure gauge in my 1958 Giulietta Spider Normale through the firewall and then connects to a flex hose. I just need the hard line.
  12. Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)
    I just recently rebuilt a Datsun L20b in a 76 620 pickup (my parts getter). It's a flat tapped engine, cam on followers, and my machine shop said I needed to use oil with zinc added to prevent camshaft wear. He also said that the most recent spec motor oils neutralize zinc additives if they are...
  13. Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)
    Greetings all Spider fans I have discovered that there are many opinions out there and typically there are good reasons behind them. I am interested in learning what you use and why; 1) Oil, 2) Gear Box, 3) Differential, 4) Brakes, 5) Steering, 6) Clutch, 7) Filters: oil and gas and lastly 8)...
  14. 164 & 168 (1991-1995)
    The oil cooler pipes on my 1994 3.0 164 24v weep oil from where the rubber sections join with the steel. By chance, have been given a spare pair of pipes, with oil cooler fitted from a raced 164. The rubber on these pipes looks quite new but I can see that because the stainless braiding has been...

  18. Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)
    Hi, I recently bought a 78 Alfa Romeo Spider (SPICA) and I had a couple of questions about the engine oil. So the previous owner said he hasn't changed the oil in about 2 years though he has filled it up with some 10W-30 engine oil whenever the oil level gets low (these is small engine oil leak...
