Hi Pat,

Sorry to let you know that Dave who appears on this website and is the local Alfa 33 registrar has been to see the car this evening. We have agreed a price and he's even left me a deposit. ...

Hi Green Cloverleaf Pat,

I do still have the car, but I'd rather not give out my e-mail on an open forum message board (I get enough spam as it is without advertising for it!). Can you register wit ...

Before I get any more calls I have taken a deposit on the sale of the car mentioned below.
Thanks for the interest. KevinS

Help! I've just nurfed my G-reg 1.7 8V sportwagon.

The other sunday morning on the way to referee a Under 16s rugby match I didn't quite stop before making contact with a Fiesta that turned right i ...

Finally cured the problems with my alfa 33!
It turns out that I'd managed to get the timing belt one tooth out for the left hand pair of cylinders. Once this was corrected the engine idled much bette ...

I had a similar problem with my 1700cc Cloverleaf 33 Sportwagon. It turns out that the acceleration circuit spray nozzzles that sit above the main venturi's were gummed up. They looked clear, but the ...

I bought two new hydraulic tappets from Northgate Alfa in Canterbury(UK) and fitted them, after doing the heating-up trick in a small oil bath (I used a small tin-can from which the tuna fish had been ...

Asmentioned in a new topic I've finally got the head off. The screw that holds the bottom of the cam belt cover was so corroded it snapped my 1/4 drive 10mm socket trying to get it undone. Luckily the ...

I finally got the cylinder head off the left side of my 'dead' 1700 Alfa 33 Cloverleaf Sportwagon's engine.
The valves all appear to be straight (although a bit coked-up) and turning the cam wheel ma ...

If anyone's interested I've got the LH inlet manifold off and there doesn't appear to be a problem with the gaskets.
I've got the radiator out and the LH cam belt cover off with view to removing the ...

Alfa electrics!
My Cloverleaf got the same problem quite a while ago when it was still running!

Firstly the indicators and Hazard Lights stopped working. The culprit turned out to be the Indicator ...

Thanks for the caution. I've checked the 'balance' pipes that run from tappings on each port of the manifold to the plastic 'spider' that joins to the air cleaner and crankcase vent. I even disconnect ...

I've had another go at the four wheeled shed and eventually got it to run again once I'd sorted out a fuel supply problem.
Anyway, I warmed up the engine for about ten minutes and did another compres ...

I removed the left (ns) carb again and checked the base gaskets and insulator plate, and found no problem. I decided not to remove the manifold itself as it looks as though the gasket seals the water ...

I've had this 1989 vintage car for about just over a year now, and having covered 1000miles or so did a basic service (Oil and Filters). The engine has run very well up until early July when it began ...
