Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration

Its been quite hot here and after a longish drive at 3 in the afternoon the fuel pump failed. The electric didnt seem to pump fuel so had to wait for the car (and the fuel ...

Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration

Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration
By the way we had to ho to flame thrower coils and a pertronix set up to get the car working smoothly without which she was just not working.
So if anyone is considering a switch to pertonix it’s highly recommended- makes the entire experience quite hassle free.

Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration
The car is on the road and the sheer thrill of the driving experience & the roar of the V 12 is insane! She misfires a bit when cold but after the engine gets properly hot the misfire more or less disappears. One thing I am unable to understand is that on this forum and in the literature I have read...

Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration
Hi
A question for all the folks driving a vintage Ferrari in
California or other such warm climates.
Have you faced a problem of the coils overheating and consequently the car shutting down?
How does one fix this?

Re: 365 GT 2 + 2 restoration
Thanks for the feedback
Could you give me a couple of names where i could get
The coil over update?
And what about the self levelling unit?
Once the coil over update installed just disconnect it?
