78 Alfa Spider Speedo Not Working. Removed speedometer (see picture). There appears to be no 'socket' for the square end of the speedo cable. There's a thin guage sheet metal shell with a round hole in the end. Something wrong here. Suggestions?

Ooops.. just didn't have the cable end seated all the way. Re-attached and now works.

The top on my 71 Spider is too tight

Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)

Chain Tensioner Wedge

Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)

73 spider stuck seat rails

Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)

I need to remove my passenger seat but to acsess the back bolts I need to slide the seat forward but the seat rail is stuck. The unlocking mechanism seems like it's working but I'm not 100% sure on that. The seat is all the way back so trying the hammer the rail forwards isn't possible. I've...

My 2020 "Slow to Start" Diagnostics thread - 1986 Spider Veloce

Spider - 105 & 115 Series (1966-1994)

In previous threads I've mentioned that I have an issue getting the car to start. Originally I thought it was a cold start issue, but I tried after driving it and a 30 min "wait" period and it still didn't turn over quickly. I'm starting this thread to work through the issue and collect the...
