Does a bear shi..., umm, nevermind.Did Eric mention pictures?![]()
Interesting but wasn't Germany on Motronic in 1989? Did it vary all over Europe?in the UK an 89 will likely be carbs or at most L-jetronic
I don't think motronic...the law there didn't even require cats on new cars till 1992 !!
Good to know. Regarding cat laws, I can't forget what I never knew about the European laws.yes you can find motronic spiders in Germany already in 89 (S3), alongside jetronic.
Motronic S4 arrived in 1990 here in Germany. In Italy, Portugal, Spain, Greece etc the S4 was offered (for tax reasons) in 1600cc with dual webers or dellortos as well as the motronic 2.0 litre injected.
don't forget USA cat laws were a good 15 years before Germany.
UK was even slower to pass the cat law.

That will tell us if you have L-Jetronic or Motronic injection and help get you the correct diagram
Okay, definitely L-Jetronic injection. Will PM with a diagram
Domoh boy, that is one unloved engine compartment
looks like lots of work ahead.
It looks like a Bell & Colville rhd conversion....that'll confuse Americans, seeing the clutch master on the wrong side
you will also need the L-jetronic troubleshooting guide.
Scroll up to Eric's posting (ghnl) and click on the down arrow to expand his signature, there you will find the jetronic doc.
Alfa stopped selling right hand drive cars back in the mid 70'sNever heard of a Bell & Colville perversion. Enlighten me please.
Thanks Dom Interesting to know. That explains a lot!Alfa stopped selling right hand drive cars back in the mid 70's
Obviously as the Brits drive on the wrong side of the road (along with the Japanese, Australians and some odd South Sea Islands) someone had to convert the cars to RHD or they wouldn't sell.
A prominent British alfa dealer "Bell & Colville" (say like Hoffmann in USA) then decided to do the conversions, but alfa would not offer a warranty (silly decision & sure didn't help sales!)
then another company in UK, Seaking, got the authority from alfa to convert their cars to rhd.
Both conversions are kinda what you guys might call 'Rube Goldberg' designs![]()
