EOBD Engine Management Light ##UPDATE## by
Alan Rogers
Well the EOBD light came on again after giving the MAF a clean, took getting
on for 50 miles before doing so though.
Took the plunge for a MAF from www.airmassmeters.com , £102 delivered -
arrived next day. Noticed the difference straight away, far more
responsive. Took nearly 100 miles for...

Just watched the outakes from the £1000 Alfa challenge on TG recently:

Buying Advice GT by
John Chapman
Back in 1999 when I bought my 146 Junior I seem to remember spending
some time
haggling to get the price right.
Now 93000 miles later I am being sorely tempted by the special edition
GT Cloverleaf.
Although there is nothing major wrong with my 146 and it is in daily use
it seems to be worth

Can't get cooler than a Kwik Fit fitter by
Pete[_1_]
I have know for years that "life's a gas".
I have also know that after having paid AR
to re-gas my air-con I was not looking forward
to parting with a similar amount again.
However, with this year's "global warming week"
upon us I was sweltering in the 28deg heat.
Kwik Fit offered to re-gas my...

A/C recharge question by
Mark Hickey
Hi, all...
I've got an '85 Spider 2000, and since I'm in Arizona (where the
temperatures reached 112F / 45C recently), it's pretty important to
have a working air conditioner.
My Spider has some sort of slow leak I'm chasing (it'll lose its
charge in a matter of weeks or months), so I've...

EOBD Engine Management Light by
Alan Rogers
Only a couple of weeks since I was crowing about getting 40mpg out of the
156 1.8TS, now the bloody EOBD light has come on.
Seems to be running OK, I read that if it's flashing there are more serious
problems.
I found that 2 of the 3 airbox lid bolts were sheared off, and the third
bolt hole...

Vuona 2007 ilmoitettiin, että sähkön kulutus oli kääntynyt pysyväismuutosta
ennakoivaan laskunsa. Vaikka ydinala vedätteli vielä eetteriin peräti liki
+10% kasvuhaaveitaan oli totuus karu, mutta selkeä -1%. Tämän vuoden alussa
T&T ilmoitteli sitten jo yhä SELKEÄMMIN kiihtyvää sähköntarpeen laskua....

[FA - UK] Alfa 75 90 Giulietta Alfetta GTV rear brake discs by
MarkK
Hello folks, I haven't been here for a while - priorities elsewhere I'm
afraid.
I'm auctioning a couple of unused 75 rear discs that have been lurking in
the garage for about 15 years. I've wire-brushed the tiny bit of surface
rust off them and they look almost as good as new, except for some tiny...

Mikä ihmeen 80%?
Lukasin lehden 5.6.2008 ja nyt on suorastaan outoa ilmassa. Miltei jokainen
Suomen ja MYÖS Ruotsin ydinvoimalat kaikki pörrää mystisellä 80 % tehollaan?
HalloUU? Miksei joku 75 % tai vaikka 90 %?? Ja miksei ydinala lainkaan asiaa
