Re: Horn Detailing

John,

I see your point! I have been accused of spending too much
time on this site. "Oh, so you're back on that Ferrari site
again already"?, is the common venacular. Hey, it's what
I enjoy doing, so be it.

Re: Cavallino Classic 2009

Tom S. actually gave something away? My goodness, this
retirement thing has really affected this poor soul.
My sentiments go out to him.

Re: Horn Detailing

Normally yes, but it has to in a readable fashion first.

Re: Horn Detailing

Ok, this weekend is designated as "let's get an old toothbrush
and clean up the FIAMM compressor day".

Re: Horn Detailing

Craig,

The trumpet base number appears to read "2119".
No idea what this would mean.

Re: Horn Detailing

Tom Wilson,

If I send you the photos of my Fiamm compressor can you post for me?
I'll be nice to you for a while...
I have serial number 207 stamped on my plate.

Re: Horn Detailing

I agree, that is not a 117. My thought is that a later type of font was used
on that third digit. Maybe a replacement for a worn original. It is thicker
in size as well.

Re: Horn Detailing

Kerry Chesbro got me hooked on using pneumatic tool oil
for the compressor, which works really well. I use it on many
other things now as well.

Re: Horn Detailing

Hey, that red oil filler cap has the same number on it as mine, "710".
What a coincidence...

Re: GTE Muffler Question

Yale,

I have heard the same comment about the stainless systems.
I have also read that it is a waste of time to set the carbs
on a Ferrari if the exhaust system is not in proper order.

Re: GTE Muffler Question

Doesn't the exhaust system back presssure have an impact
on carburetor settings?
