Faz favor, Pcavalera, falar Ingles?

We prefer English - even bad or machine translated - so that more users can understand!

Thanks.

Antmota - what was the condition of the exhaust cam? Mine is just in need of replacement at about 280,000km.

Hello Pcavalera,

I bought the distrubution parts on a aftermarket car parts shop in Portugal. No problem to get them. Everythink from top brands like "continental" or "dayco" for example.

The Thermostat is a really expensive part... a surprise for me.
You can find several on ebay but for more than € 100.

regards
Antonio

The cambelt kit It's easy to find. You need that to keep all coupe 16vt and lancia delta integrale running.

The thermostat is also the same as the integrale 16v. Others confirm this?
I didn't chance this on mine. I see that is a rare part and on ebay we can find it for high prices.

Regards

Heh, you think the 16VT thermostat is hard to come by, try looking for a 16NA. I bought one last year that took six months to find.

Hello Gimmo,

If it's confirmed that the thermostat is really correcto for the 16vt I will want one.

Maybe Pcavalera wants to join one for him in the same package. I work all around portugal and can meet him.

Send me photos of the gearknob and tell me price!

Antonio

Hi guys, sorry for my late answer.
My mailbox is full! And I'm very busy working on my thesis laugh

But I'm always available if I can help someone to save a Coupe'!
Do you have Paypal?

Yes, I have paypal.

Please confirm availability of the part and if it's really correct for the 16vt please.

I'm still waiting for the photos and price of the gearknob... with expectancy... will it be possible to exist an used gearknob in good condition??

Mota
