Re: Source for 30 amp ceramic fuse in the US?

Thanks for the info. I looked it up. It lists even two 30 Amp fuses for the Zagato. The extra one must be for the electro motor in the rear. Correct me if I am wrong. I am sitting at home in front of a computer screen. I am not in the shop. I guess one of the 30 Amp fuses is #9. The rear window heat...

Re: Source for 30 amp ceramic fuse in the US?

I am not aware of any 30 Amp fuse in a Fulvia. Where is it?

Re: S2 axle boot replacement

Yes. You can remove the drive shaft.

Torque values are in the Technical Databook. See Fulvia_S2_1 at https://viva-lancia.com/specials/cd/fulvia-cd.php

For the axle nut it is 30 mkg.

Inboard CVJ to flange M8 bolts: 3 mkg when yellow or 5 mkg when black

Re: Thermostaat demonteren

Thermostaat maak je los met pijp of dop 41. Ik gebruik een dop 41 op een slagmoersleutel onder het motto los of barsten. Meestal gaat ie los. Dan zit er nog genoeg aluminium om een nieuwe te monteren. Soms breekt het thermostaathuis. Dan zat er niet genoeg aluminium om een nieuwe te monteren. Dan we...

Re: Breaks

Good useful posts. For the rubber hoses we figure 5 years max shelf life and 10 years max under the car. I would go back to standard DOT4. That is in the books. Less chance of mistakes. Don't forget to replace the force limiter with new. Replace the O rings of any new master brake cylinder with EPDM...

Re: Fulvia 1.3 Engine Head Gasket Installation

Good question, Jacques.

I have never used it on the modern gaskets. I would on the old fashioned copper ones.

Re: 'Sudden' change in oil pressure

Before closing the sender again you can test it with compressed air. Make a set up with an interface, manometer and pressure regulator.

If your sender is the 0 - 6 bar version, the resistance is 300 ohm at 0 bar and 0 (close to 0) ohm at 6 bar.

If it is the 0 - 8 version it will be 0 ohm at 8 bar.

Re: S1 tyre size

Hi Julian I moved your posting to the Fulvia forum. Can you please post in the Fulvia forum in the future? The correct size is 145R14. No / numbers. You need a tyre with old fashion construction which you can run at 1.7 bar (24 psi). Cars with leaf springs have a two stage spring action. The first s...

Re: 'Sudden' change in oil pressure

Oops. That is serious. The oil pressure was really low. Most of the time erratic behaviour of the oil pressure gauge is caused by bad contacts inside the sender. This can be fixed by prying it open, clean the contacts, bend the contact lip and close it.

Re: Curious brake issues Series 1/2 Fulvia

I agree. And with the new style brake cylinders the S1 system is superior to the S2 system. The trapezium seal in the cylinder wall of the new style cylinders is less trapezium than the seal in the Girling brakes. Retraction is less. The pads are pushed back by the discs. If the discs are straight a...
