Mac, You may have no luck. Perhaps your trouble comes from injectors blocked in place. It happend to me a year ago (with 5 off) when I changed my engine and belive me I checked and overchecked everything before I found out the trouble. So, if you have a pulse generator, I would suggest that you chec...

Barry,
My car shows a chassis number starting with ZAR but
was for sure produced in Italy in 1984.
I'm definitively not convinced by your theorie. Sorry.

Hello Jonas,

In order to understand your engine trouble, can you please tell if your engine
starts and stop running afterwards (after 1 second or so) or does it simply refuse to start ?

Barry,

Are you sure all these cars and bicycles belong to the same owner ?
It sounds crazy to me but when you love you don't count (when you have
enough monney to do so).

Can we place an order to get the GTV6 made of metallic wires ?
If yes, what about the price ?

Matt,
In order to be sure not to mark or ingrave the barb with your knife or
cutter, you can also use a soldering pen and burn the rubber off.
I did it 6 month ago when I changed all the injectors on my GTV6 and
it did work fine.

Sorry, yes, you're right.
It is effectively the vertical part of the rear seat.
Keep me informed of your work progression.

By the way, don't you speak french ?

Hello Grega, Depending on how old are your rear shocks as well as how they have been installed on your car, you have two different ways to get those famous nuts. Option A) Your shocks are not too old and were installed correctly. In this case, you can reach these nuts by removing the vertical part o...

Have you try such solution yourself ?
Have you seen a GTV6 equipped with such product ?
If yes, how does it look like ? Does it match correctely the inside form of the front fenders ? Any picture ?
