Alfa Romeo 164 Register.com

So did you find something? Do you have a part number for it or the unit the bushing is mounted in?

The links do not work for me either anymore. I will try and see, if I can find the files somewhere and put them here.

And another 164 Q4 has come to the garage. It has unfortunately been parked outside for a long time, but the renovated engine and wheels have been stored inside and it is complete. Maybe it will be on the road some day... 🍀🍀🍀

Well, it is going a bit slow with the 164, so I am doing the timing belt on my 916 Spider 24V. Still some way to go, expect to be done next weekend

Great, thanks! I will write in the FB chat, hopefully people will see it

Thanks!

Congratulations that is looking really nice and even a facelift model.

Apparently the registration is not completed, and then for next try the email is already in use...

"once I finalize the subscription it just fails, and if I try again it just says the email is already in use 🤨 so confused and baffled actually. Tried with two separate emails, nothing. Poor website ...

I was made aware of it in this group
https://www.facebook.com/groups/599943633409982

I have asked if a description or screen dump of the issue could be made, hope to get something back.

I have seen on FB that people are having problems registering to this site.

Can anyone please help out with this?? The activity is very slow here, so new members would really help

If you had any problems with fuel pressure, the submersible hose is definitely worth to check. But if restoring the car, it is worth changing components that are likely to be worn.

Good to hear that you still have it and want to keep it

Look at this thread, it contains bosch numbers and a possible other solution, though photos are not available anymore.

A long read, but interesting info!

I may have lost the overview a bit, but when replacing the engine(s) I guess you also had new/other waterpump thermostat and other ancillaries? Same transmission? New/other radiator? If some of this was replaced, I would rule out those being the main cause of the ...

Sounds to me like an airleak, which has increased over time... Maybe combined with an electrical issue, when it occurs.

I don't have anything more specific, but I guess the suggestions in similar situations of trying to spray something (non-flammable) around the hoses might be a place to start.

Found on AlfaBB - maybe of interest for people on this forum...

Bellissima

I think it would like to see some snow at some point, though - the fun factor is great

That is looking really good!

The original one in my Q4 is still looking good (I think), but I will see if something should be done to it, when it is time to put it back in....

I don't know, but I think it will be difficult to find, unless they have an armoured version, where the springs are stronger for the extra weight.

I don't know if they are different between 12V & 24V, but maybe you can find info on alfabb regarding this...

That is an interesting find! No idea what would cause such a situation in that system...

I don't know much about the 2L version, but I guess a place to look is at the throttle linkage to the plenum - maybe it has become a bit 'sticky' over time?

Good find, thanks for sharing

So started to take the engine apart. By handturning the engine, I got 5 - 6 bar on each cylinder, so happy with that.

Taking the top apart has mainly shown a good state of the parts, which I am happy about - and also expected to some point :)

A little bit of marks on one of the cams, will have to ...

I have attached a zip file here, containing 2 different versions, depending on if you need to use a 90deg setup, as I did.

Yes, as I have mentioned on a few occasions, Nagengast have done a great job on the adjustable shocks on my Q4 and 8.32, and steering racks for both, as well.
