I have a 1979 308 GTB and have a failing window switch. A whole 193 UK pounds from Superformance, and seems eye wateringly expensive wherever you...
Thanks for that. I suspect his website must be out of date! Anyway, we are now in contact, I've figured out exactly what I need, and its all...
Still no luck getting any response via email. What email have you been using (specially the recent contact). I've been using [email protected]....
Thanks for the confirmation he's still active. I've tried going through the contact form on the website with no luck, so I've just sent him an...
Thanks - someone obviously in the same time zone as me (I'm in NZ). I got that far, but wanted to verify the diagram I thought I needed was the...
I found a link to www.ferrari308gtbi.com, who supplies high quality colour coded wiring diagrams for a number of Ferraris. They look very useful,...
I finally got this sorted, and a few lessons in here. The adjusters have a threaded shaft that can drive the piston in and out. Inside the piston...
Another vote for the Pavoni, but you have to love the process. Add a manual grinder for the full romance of making coffee!
I installed a port under the fuse panel, which lets me plug in a trickle charger when the car is garaged, but that won't give you a jump start...
I've just been and put new pads in the rear of my 79 308. The new pads only just fit, so the pistons needed to be fully retracted to make room....

I've finally got this resolved! My intention in the short term was simply to replace the value with a couple of hard connectors to link the lines...
A bit more clarity. My local brake people list these under proportioning valves, but they are apparently the same as the Ferrari - a differential...
Thanks - the reference you gave was the one I mentioned. Couldn't see any way of capturing the reference on my phone, but on the PC it was...
After a rebuild of the rear calipers on my 79 308, it has intermittently been showing the brake failure warning light. I have tracked this down to...
Reminded me that I had forgotten to post a picture of the spark plug spanner from my tool kit. I've always assumed this was a standard toolkit...
BTW, I just used a 125mm vice as a press, which worked fine.
They are trivial and cheap to replace, so I'd just go ahead and do it. If you have access to a lathe, a stepped drift to press these out and the...
My 79 GTB has a swivel plug spanner that I've always thought came with the original toolkit (complete and intact as far as I know). This has a...
It's all back together, and just taken it out for a drive. I ended up replacing all 8 inner bushes (what it came apart for), all the teflon split...
