A very happy frenchy's writing noon; today I found a 164 3.0 V6 from 1988. It will be my christmas gift.
Lot of work to do on it after several years in a box. First hand driver bought it in germany and kept until today.
330000km on european highways and in Morocco.....

164 is indeed addictive! I also like cars with high mileage, that's a testament to this car's quality and reliability. Looks like a nice original car, congratulations!

Yes really, I met the very only one first owner, he droved his 164 through europe and maghreb and only regreats the lack of clim whe he bought it in germany.
Of course nowadays mylady has lots of problem but I love "her" anyway

If it cuts when warmed up I would suspect crankshaft position sensor.

Do I understand right that at idle from time to time the revs go down like the engine would die down? That's what I have recognised at my 164 24V a few times - but the garagist could not replicate this effect even when driving the car twice for about an hour.

Thanks yes it cuts like this.
But the car has'nt been used for many years except last june when the previous owner drove it during.......400 yards.
He had the problem long before unuse the lady.
Gasoline is very old.
I will connect an OBD at first.
