Re: Ignition coil

There is a lot of wound wire in the coil which heats up. It needs cooling. In the old days (say before 1970) cooling was done by oil. The coil is not 100% full of oil. To make sure the air bubble is outside the windings the coil has to be mounted upright. On the S1 Fulvia's the coils are mounted upr...

Re: 123 distributor

The Fulvia engine has a short engine and thus a short crankshaft. It has only 3 main bearings while a 4 in line engine like the Lampredi engine has 5 main bearings. The narrow V4 Fulvia crankshaft flexes more than any 4 in line crankshaft. The flexing causes vibration and metal fatigue. The earlier ...

Re: How to adjust door lock?

Does it make a difference when the drivers door is open or closed?

Re: Advice: S2 head overhaul Fulvia coupe 1.3S

Wait a minute. There is a good chance there is a depositie on the valves caused by the additives. Do NOT use any additives. Fulvia's run very well on unleaded. Stop using the additive. Try to clean valves by running the car on Euro98 from a reliable source. Run the car. If you like with a bit of eng...

Re: Advice: S2 head overhaul Fulvia coupe 1.3S

The compression values certainly point to valves not properly closing. Did you put any additive into the fuel? Some lead replacement additives leave a powder on valves and seats. If you did, stop putting additives. Fill up with E5 and add valve cleaning stuff to the fuel. The workshop manual for S2 ...

Re: Pressure relief valve

Yes. It is possible to lift the engine enough to replace the oil pump. You have to remove the hoses to radiator and some other stuff.

I can't remember seeing any Fulvia oil filter base without the nr 9 pipe.

Re: Welke banden Fulvia

Mooie auto! Complimenten. Dat is een latere 2e serie ook wel Fulvia 3 genoemd. De juiste bandenmaat is 165R14 145/80R14 is veel te klein. Dat is de maat voor de 1ste serie. Hij staat op de originele stalen 4,5J14 velgen. De ET waarde is 51mm en de kleur Argento Nevada. IK laat stalen velgen opknappe...

Re: Welke banden Fulvia

Je hebt het over Fulvia Coupé 1.3S. Dat is de officiële aanduiding voor 2e serie coupé. Onder 2e serie zitten 165R14 banden. Je hebt het ook over Camac. Die maakt voor zo ver ik weet geen 165R14 maar wel 145R14 en dat is de band voor de 1ste serie. De meeste banden die nu gemaakt worden zijn voor au...
