the cilinder blocks definately should have paint on them. It might be that the costcutters at Fiat descided it was unnecessary when they introduced the serie 2 but all (S1) 1100 engine blocks are black. I still have a factory new c1100cc ilinderblock with pistons in my partsbin. From the 1216 cilind...

Hi Rick, the ratched you discovered is probably the rear brake limiting device. just a lever controled hydraulic tap. releasing flow to the rear brakes the more the rear of the car is loaded. If your rear end is very stiff several thing might be wrong: rear leafsprings rusted and therefor harsh. Rem...

hij moet 75000 euro kosten. Boel geld voor zo'n klein autootje. En dan moet hij nog uit japan verscheept worden ook.

De eigenaar van deze competizione is een echte engineer. Wat wij niet eens kunnen bedenken bouwt hij gewoon. Hij heeft ook een zagato body voorzien van een Fiat 2400 dino motor met achterwielaandrijving. Deze compressor ombouw is geen lancia volumex maar een japans fabrikaat en nog in ontwikkeling. ...

Topgear on BBC2 tonight at 21.00 will feature lancia as one of the great margues

The 1200 and 1300HF cataloque models did not have any modifications done to the refueling system. The factory cars had a 80litre L-shaped tank in the righthand side of the boot. The fuelfiller door was necessarilly riased to the next higher side plane and used the same lockable flap. If you send me ...

Like the 1300HFS which was factory fitted with DDHF40's with 34mm venturi so was the 1216HF with 77mm bore (making 1248cc) factory fitted with the same DDHF40 carbs.The problem being that also these carbs are not available. This 1200HFS was not available to the public compaired to two years later th...

Actually the 1C berlina had a 4.5 turns steeringbox. For the 2C they quickened up the ratio to 4.25 turns. The 1600 had the mentioned 3.5 and for rally 1200HF and 1300Hfs they used Flavia steeringarms on the 4.25 steering box. these 1cm longer arms reduce the ratio to about 3.8 turns lock to lock. T...

Seems to be a ground problem. Use an Ohmmeter and measure the resistance between the engine, chassis and body. Should be in the reagon of <1ohm. I have fitted an extra groundstrap between the gearbox and the body which cured a simular problem in my HF.
Good luck

wat vaak helpt is om aan de (doorzichtige) plastic slag die je op de nippel hebt gestoken te zuigen terwijl een compaan die in de auto zit pomt met het rempedaal. Doorzichtige slang zodat je op tijd kunt stoppen met zuigen voordat je een slok Dot 4 in je mond krijgt.
Succes!
