Service and maintenance costs for an Fcar can be quite jarring to one used to low-maint cars like Toyota. I still remember the huge expenses I...
The only place I leave my Ferrari parked outside for extended periods of time is at our local church. Even with the top down, no incidents in the...
Thanks all for the great feedback. Went ahead and had the alternator rebuilt and sure enough, the car starts now even when hot. Wish I had thought...
Thank you! I just found out that the alternator is not charging the battery either, so I have to get past this problem first before working on the...
I've gone through the archives and have not had any luck with this question. Can anyone tell me where the starter for the 86 Mondial Cab is...
Hello again Well we've determined that the compression on one of the cylinder banks is too low. However, we need the timing belt mark in order...
Great thanks! I just talked to my mechanic and he's making good progress. Apparently the fuel pressure is just one of multiple issues. I'll keep...
Some of you may recall that my '86 Mondial 3.2 Cab started losing power, with the Slow Down light lighting up whenever it would happen. It finally...
Ok, let me try another route. If you bought your first Ferrari, and all it did was break down, cause you headaches and drain your wallet, would...
Let me try to put it in terms folks here will understand. Being married to the right woman brings more happiness than owning a ten F40's....
I don't recall the specifics of what caused the problem, but it wasn't engine braking. Yes, it was fixed by a $250 insurance policy I purchased...
Quick follow up: old habits are hard to break so I have gradually been working my way up to higher RPM's this past weekend. As luck would have it,...
I have seen the error of my ways! Thanks for the advice. First thing tomorrow I'm going to turn the beast loose!
I tend to drive my Mondial very carefully, shifting as early as possible (3-3.5k RPM) and making sure I don't go anywhere near the yellow zone on...
Friend of mine just sent me this link. 1986 Testarossa, 30k service done, for $49k hard cash. http://www.cars-on-line.com/86ferrari14606.html...
I actually had a pleasant experience with Allstate. After my friend got in an accident with my Mondial, I contacted my agent who got me in touch...
Between my 308 and my 911 widebody, I'd take the 308. Between my Mondial and the same 911, I'd take the Porsche. But I'd scrap them all for a 512....
I've often wondered about this issue. My Mondial was in a minor fender bender (see related thread), mostly small dents and I had to have the side...
The only downside is having to mop the new tile floor. My neighbor always gives me a hard time whenever I do it, but you gotta love a shiny...
