355 A/C TX VALVE ( Expansion valve) Alfa Romeo 145TS 146TS For the Aussie guys I purchased mine through Auto8. Wangaratta VIC. PtNo C22-5017. $113 AUD.
For people who don't want to pay extreme high prices for the sparkplugwires set of the F355. You can make one yourself for around €150 Or you could just use the sparkplugwires for a VW Passat 2.8/2.9, VR6, Corrado, Golf 3 1H those are for 6 cylinders so just buy two sets and you have 12 sparkplugwires for around €30 in total. Select the ones with the length you desire and just plug and play.
As for the making of your own set. The original BERU sparkplugwires are equiped with a BERU ZLE260 sparkplugcap which are not for sale. Thus making an exact copy of the original BERU set yourself by simply ordering the separate parts has been made impossible. After a long search I found the following solution: replace the BERU ZLE260 plug with a BERU ZLE248 sparkplugcap. Only difference between those two is the length of the ZLE248 which is 4mm longer than the ZLE260. The model and characteristics are identical. The ZLE248 is still available if you search well enough. (around €10 to €15 a piece) Buy some 7mm silicon cable, sawtooth connection pieces and BERU RHB009 caps (coil) and you're good to go.
To clarify and correct a little mistake in my earlier post. It should be: Buy some 7mm silicon cable, saw-tooth connection pieces BERU RHB002 for caps (coil) and you're good to go. BERU ZLE248 sparkplug caps BERU VESO 116 ignition coil caps BERU ratchet sleeves (0 901 300 198) for connecting cable to the sparkplug caps BERU saw-tooththread sleeves (0 901 300 002) for connecting cable to the ignition coil caps 5,5 meters 7mm silicon cable (2x 0,85m.,2x 0,75m.,2x 0,60m.,2x 0,53m.)
You mean complete spools of 25/50 meters with printed nr.1 on it ,and complete spools with nr.2 on it etc.? I don't know but it's not likely. They deliver to manufacturers and After market sellers. Finding a seller of After market products where you can buy separate numbered spools won't be easy I guess but as I said I don't know.
1998 F355 spider which I just sold on BAT. I have the old/original exhaust and cats ( which can be rebuilt) if anybody wants them; you would only pay for shipping. Email me, [email protected]
The (fragile) F355 front compartment light (Ferrari #139517) is a Hella 2JA 004 759-011. It is also used for the 550, 348, 360 models.
The rare NLA power transistor Ferrari 63307200 is equal to Fiat 7710279 / Fiat 60811987. The original Fiat parts are also not easy to come by. Some Alfa variants look the same but they all have different connectors. Fiat 7710279 has connectors that are identical to the two original Ferrari parts that I have in stock. At least it seems that it was remanufactured China. Try "fiat 7710279" in Ebay UK (it must be the UK Ebay site to see it). The connections on the picture look right. If all seems to be lost it might be worth a try. Several threads deal with 63307200 power transistor and you can find details about its connectors there... I hope this is helpful anyway.
The rubber gasket 164097 for both cooling fans is no longer available as a single part (only along with the whole new fan). This part is a SPAL 30130074 gasket and easily available.
Crazy, but they popped up on my Amazon feed for some reason last week...go figure https://www.amazon.com/Spal-30130074-Fan-Shroud-Gasket/dp/B003PB4A5C
355 Thermocouple brass compression olives RS Components item No 293-6721 4mm brass compression olive Please note i had to file fit these to the thermocouple. 3/16' was to big.
Thanks Paul. Do you know if the olives should be replaced every time a thermocouple is R&R'd from a cat? I recently swapped cats and will replace them if necessary.
I don't believe so. Mine was split unfortunately. If there is no sign of damage I would just put a little high temp sealer and reinstall. After a few drive cycles just check that there still firm.
Thermostat (same as the one sold by parts suppliers in yellow boxes) - USD 9 plus USD 26 DHL Express, Total USD 35 at https://spareto.com/products/facet-thermostat-coolant/7-8225s. Thermostat price EUR 9.29 shown includes VAT, EUR 7.70 when you login (if you are outside EU).
Find some challenge wheels.....Not the replicas....Lighter weight and wider stance on the front by .5"
The special spherical bearing for brake/clutch pedals Ferrari #109407 is a SKF GE 8 C. The original part is blessed with a crazy price so adding this information to this list may be useful. GE 8 C seems to be offered buy other manufacturers than SKF, here in Germany a (non SKF) GE 8 C can be found for less than 4 Euros incl. VAT (original part is more than 10x its price).
Does anyone has a Bosch or compatible part number compare to Ferrari part #148677, temperature sensor? Thanks in advance.
Just to clarify... You mean the "sender" or "transmitter" with the red collar for the temperature gauge? Not the "sensor/s" for the engine management system? I did a quick search for the sender/transmitter and couldn't find an alternative. The sensors have a Bosch equivalent. Red collar shown here: Image Unavailable, Please Login
