Don't worry Italia autos,you are making progress and by the time you will get it back to the road you will be much happier(Hearing that busso screaming in the good way).
Very good idea to replace the rubber seal for the fuel pump at the same time. The rubber breaks down over time leading to fuel smell in cabin. Only £12 from the dealer.
honest video and great to see how you approach fixes, wish I had a lift so i could work freely under my car. Keep up the videos looking forward to the progress. I also have a Vela blue GTV TS not V6
There is a loose spark on the right hand side of the loom near the injector on the front bank. This is serious as v6s can self ignite with porous fuel pipes. It was easy to see on the video when you did the second " first start". I've looked again......and it's not a spark at all.....it's just something waving around that looked a bit like spark to me......My apologies and I'm off to Specsavers shortly....however the rubber injection feed pipes do go porous over time....I've seen it.....with my glasses on...
How do you remove the fuel and fuel return pipes on GTV 2.0 twin? I haven't seen this type of connection before, looks like they are push connections... the collars don't seem to do anything?
I've read that draining the ABS block when renewing pipes can cause problems , is this true.?? If so how do you avoid it?? Great videos! They give me confidence before attacking a job.
Hey i have a promblem, can you help. I have an Alfa Romeo brera 2007 and i was checking its circuit bord. After putting everything together car key didint work and the car was showing vehicle protection system not available; electronic key not recognized
Neil, the fuel pump just went on my 98 GTV V6. Do you know if the 2.5 v6 pump would have fit? Also would you know if the fuel pump is the same on the twin spark as the v6? They are rare as rocking horse poop here in Australia. Top channel and content as always and great to see some love for the GTV.
@@ItaliaAutos Thanks a lot Neil, used your video on taking out the back seat/fuel pump out of your blue GTV, and tested the power at the pump and there was none. Found it was the 15A fuse blown under the bonnet next to relay. new fuse and all ok. I suspect the pump may be on its way out as it has been making a racket shortly after startup when the tank is low. I will get in touch if it blows again about that one you have. Thanks a lot.
hello i see they only fix alfa romeo. i wonder if you can know or fit the automatic transmission from 3.2q4 to 2.4 20v qtronic 159. thanks for the reply
G'Day Mate! enjoying your vids....very relaxing from this side, lying back on my couch with my iMac on my dinner-trolley. Thanks for the content. I'm sure you and your viewers would enjoy 'Davide Cironi Drive Experience' YT Channel for more awesome Alfa vids . Again, THANKS for your great content!
Very RARE interiors your GTV ! 👍 i wish (4 u..) isnt a turbo version, or else a very Very (VERY!) rare 24 valves V6 turbo 😆 ... otherwise, u have to manage mechanical gap in ex valves any 20.000 km ... !!!!! (how alfa romeo wrote in his customer manual)
That really is a piece of junk mate, I didn't see one single thing under that car that doesn't need to be replaced! Way more money and work than you can ever sell it for :(
@@peterjennings8258 I know, I have a 147 GTA. But in Australia cars just don't get that corroded unless you park them in the ocean :D To me it looks like a nightmare!
@@ArmySigs yeah that's the UK for you.... still if I had the room I would add a v6 gtv to my delta integrale and alfasud sprint .... would love to own a busso.
@Farina Marcini for your information I have owned two Alfa's and a FIAT. NEITHER made it to 100 k without significant problems. If they are so reliable and durable why aren't they best sellers? I live in the United States and reviews by consumers and industry experts agreed they both ALFA and FIAT are poorly built and some of the worst cars on the market. Cars that were $50 k with less than 10 k miles often sell used in the low twenties. Several U.S. magazines had them as long term test cars and wrote about problem after problem.
@@williamegler8771 look , if you take care of the cars they want make any major problems for example timing belt needs to be changed at 60.000 miles or 4 to 5 years.You will change it at the 58.000 to 59.000 miles in order to not have any problems.Also this is your opinion the others in this channel probable like Alfa Romeo , didn't come to show their hate about the brand.
@@chourmouzischrislazarou1586 The cars were dealer maintained by the book and driven in a sensible manner. You may of had good experience with yours but a majority has not.

I have nothing against ALFA and your are more than welcome to drive them but don't try to convince others that they are problem free.
Just quality content! I don't need anything else. Keep up the good work!👍👍
Im so glad that i can watch something like this in this world full of 1000hp cars on youtube and all of that stuff...
Great to see it start.
Never seen a break pipe repair before. Very interesting.
Always somthing new to show you guys.
Don't worry Italia autos,you are making progress and by the time you will get it back to the road you will be much happier(Hearing that busso screaming in the good way).
Yay. It was nice that it pretty much started first time.
@@ItaliaAutos also that fiat coupe tho from the back ground
@@chourmouzischrislazarou1586 videos to come on that soon as it's needs to be sold.

The used one was perfect but I did have a new one if needed.
Sod it, its raining so I'm going to binge watch the GTV resto from the start lol.
Enjoy.
One of the best Alfa Romeo cannels. Thank you again🙏
many thanks.
Nice one Neil, a good feeling when it starts I’m sure - looking forward to that feeling myself! I liked your “subliminal seal” too 😂
Hi the Alfa nut . When will you make a video about the 156 2.5 v6 . The last time you made one it was still in the bodyshop
Hi mate, yes I have got the 156 back now and I’m working on an update video this week!
honest video and great to see how you approach fixes, wish I had a lift so i could work freely under my car. Keep up the videos looking forward to the progress. I also have a Vela blue GTV TS not V6
Bas Sharif thanks, just finished editing the next episode for Friday..

Tim Hancock sharp eye either way! 👍🏻
Can't wait for 20vt to be done
This is often said and I hope it hasn't lost the meaning - you are a legend!
Another great video👍
Love the "Harry Enfield" thumbnail 😂😂😂
Yeah they say your face sells Facebook so giving it a go lol
How do you remove the fuel and fuel return pipes on GTV 2.0 twin? I haven't seen this type of connection before, looks like they are push connections... the collars don't seem to do anything?
The picture of seal! Lol
Lol then the actual seals😂

Great videos! They give me confidence before attacking a job.
That a mainly on the early phase 1 abs pumps.
@@ItaliaAutos
I've got a very early phase 1 ABS pump. lol.
96 TS.
I have '95 TB: no problems with the abs after refilling (and it was empty for 10 years!) and it works as it should.

Did you change the remaining break pipes as well? All of them looking rusty and it might change lives!
Oh yeah they all where changed,
@@ItaliaAutos I never expected the opposite 👍👍👍
Great Chanel 👍Thanks👍

Buenos días, me gustaría contactar contigo sobre una sugerencia de un alfa romeo gt 3.2 V6
Eso no es restaurar un coche.. Eso es arreglarlo y ponerlo en marcha. Nada más.
Es un buen mecanico
Engine like my brain 🙀
HA! Seal. I got it.

Lmao @ Seal
That really is a piece of junk mate, I didn't see one single thing under that car that doesn't need to be replaced! Way more money and work than you can ever sell it for :(
