Re: RADIATOR FAN FUNCTIONS

Murray. thanks you were right on the money. It was the D relay that was malfunctioning. I removed it, tapped it a few times with a screwdriver handle, greased it with some dielectric grease and replaced it. Works fine, but I will replace it soon to be safe.

Re: RADIATOR FAN FUNCTIONS

Hello Murray. Thanks again for the info. If it was cooler, I would love to take a ride out to Knowlton. But until I solve my current problem or the heat lets up, the Alfa is best left in the garage.

waxing the gtv6

I own a mint 85 GTV6. The last time I waxed the car (I think it was the only time) I ended up with wax paste on the plastic body panels. Years later, there continues to be unwanted dry wax residue. I am reluctant to wax the car again because of this problem. How do other owners wax their cars and av...
