Re: [MarcosManiacs] Do I feel lucky...

2002-08-10 by michael hullevad

Hej Jan!

Mig bekendt er der ikke flere 1800GT i Danmark end din. Jeg har selv købt en 1600 som trænger til en kærlig hånd (bl.a. en ny motor/gearkasse). Jeg kan anbefale Dellortho karburatorer i stedet for Weber, de har bedre justeringsmuligheder, så på rullefelt (med lambdasonde), så kører det bare. Jeg kan anbefale Kurt Mejer her i Horsens, han er den bedste til b18/b20 i landet.

                                         med venlig hilsen

                                              michael
