Kazzer has a black GTS.
Still planning on attending this... what time do we need to be there... 9am?
Hi Matt,
Thanks for the encouragement.
It looks like the problem was a rogue thermostat which had closed, causing a build up of steam which released at full throttle along the straight blowing off the top hose connection.
Like you said at the time the water pump must be in good shape! Car's running fine now as its locked into 'fail safe' mode with the 'stat permanently fixed open!
Thanks for giving details of your radiator and the fact that you’ve found it OK is reassuring, mine is similar - but of German EIS make.
I still think that there could be an extra row of tubes in the OEM 3 litre/2.0 Turbo unit as the EPER part numbers for the 2 litre are different. Not according to the aftermarket ‘experts’ though!
I suspect it’s probably like the 3 litre exhaust offerings - the part ‘fits’ rather than is ‘OEM spec’. There’s 5mm reduction in pipe diameter in all the ones I’ve seen!
Be good to see you at ‘Combe if you fancy a trip out on Saturday.
Sorry, but it's looking unlikely that I'll be able to make this at all now. Will put it on the calendar for next year though. Hope everything goes well and lots of cash is raised.
I have at the moment will be changing it Wednesday if all goes as planned.
So will be in the new one a newer blue one and if there is any hiccup early Saturday it will be have to be the Alfa Spider
Big day today then Kazzer, hopefully all has gone well and you will collect your new blue Bella as planned.
Looking forward to seeing it on Saturday, if not, then the Alfa will be equally welcome on the parade line.
