Mine did have a trip computer as well, and check control, but the interior looks identical apart from that.

Some snaps of my old QO in my photobucket library http://s213.photobucket.com/user/eagle ...

The Sud QO has a long gearbox as well..

I don't know whether they marketted them as Quadrafoglio Oros in the UK but it looks just like my old one, apart from the paint colour. Hubcaps, two tone paint, wood effect steering wheel and gearknob ...

A QO like what I used to have. Not too rotten for a S1. Single Weber twin choke carb,

£500 is a bit steep though.

Cute scoot! Smile

Are you sure it's not just the tracking/camber that needs adjusting?

There might be a way but I wouldn't try taking them apart. I did once on an old one but ended up destroying it. Embarassed

So now I have a separate key for the ignition.

You can get the ignition switch ...

No drilling.

I had to change mine after the car was broken into. You have to turn the key to a certain position which allows you to push the button in on the side to slide it out. No very difficul ...

A faulty ignition switch has similar symptoms. I'm surprised you haven't at least tried another.

I was crossing fingers in my C15 every time I started it. Not that that helped. It was completely ra ...

Love Alfettas. Shame they mostly have rotted away now. Crying or Very sad

Ignition switch still favourite with me..

Can you get hold of another ignition switch + key(s)?

All but the latest series 3 have a 3 pin electrical socket I believe. My 1994 one has a four pin socket for anti-theft device.

Nice work ZP Wink

I think I would have got a hernia trying that. Laughing

I took a few pics when I did mine over a pit. Here's one in my photobucket library http://s213.photobucket.com/user/eagle3_2007/media/IMG_1269.jpg.html?o=124

It might be worth digging a hole. Good ...

Always thought the fuel filter was in a dodgy place. Much safer nearer the pump if it's feasible.

Do you want my '94 33 ZP? CT just expired. Needs a catalytic converter but otherwise in good mechan ...

Just put a replacement switch on my C15 diesel van. Starting was a bit hit and miss, getting gradually worse. Pre-heating was fine but the exciter bit(last turn of the key) was obviously problematic. ...

Could be faulty ignition key switch.

Yer looks nice that Cloverleaf SW. Definitely one to keep. Must be almost unique with leather.

Yes that S2 1.7 Cloverleaf SW must be very rare.

I'm not sure they even sold them in SW form in France. Can't remember seeing one anyway.

Anybody fancy this? The Controle Technique runs out soon and I'm pretty sure it will need a new catalytic converter(and lambda sensor). Also the indicators and hazard warning relay needs re-soldering. ...

Hello and welcome.

Much of what you say applies to Europe. Stocks of Alfa 33 parts have been emptied out of dealers stores. It's just too old a model to worry about for them. Not many left here eit ...

Exchange standard calipers are still available here apparently http://www.webdealauto.com/fr/etrier-de-frein-echange-standard/era-bc51218.78.1349475.8252.html

Sintered means it's bronze powder moulded under pressure to the form then heated. This gives a certain porosity to the material(heating causes the powder to bond but leaves pores between the grains).

Have you put new spark plugs in? What spark plugs are you using?

You said you cleaned them. Were they particularly sooty?

It might be worth getting the injectors cleaned and tested. Then check f ...
