Well it has taken a while and ive been a bit slack over Christmas, BUT the Gtv6 is back to its former self and running perfectly again. I ALMOST had it from the very beginning but one vital piece of information eluded me. There is a fine gauze filter in the fuel tank that filters the fuel prior to i...

You will find that most tachometers from this era work off the negative side of the coil.

Hey Dave, yes i am going to swap over the ECU and if that doesnt make a difference then the car is going down to a local fuel injection specialist who i have used before. He specialises in Porsches but can diagnose the L-Jetronic in the Alfa with no problems. He is expensive but i am at the stage wh...

Hi all. Well i went back and tried everything again and went over all the things that i have already done like checking for vacume leaks and running an OHM meter over the sensors. The AFM seems to be ok as i have tried swapping it with another one off a 2.5 Milano and it didnt make any difference. T...

Hey Zamani. I had thought about the ECU, but they just dont go wrong that often so i havent tried swapping it over for another one yet.

It then falls in a heap and drops cylinders and runs very rough, eventually stalling. The work carried out so fa...

Thanks for that info, i am going into the worshop tomorrow to have another crack at it so that will be the first thing i have a look at. Im pretty sure its not any earthing problems as the car hasnt been driven in the rain once in the past 7 years and has lived undercover in a relatively dry environ...

Hey all, its been a few years since i have posted on an Alfa Forum as i havent been driving the GTV6 alot. So i have been working on the car and its running perfectly when its cold, but as soon as its getting warm it falls in a heap and starts to misfire and drop cylinders out. Wont rev, and eventua...
