Re: Plastic hubcap center refurbishment

A combination of wet-sanding and polishing, indeed just like you do with modern day headlights. Some - not great - pictures here: viewtopic.php?t=878&start=40. They turned out very nice.

Re: Dutch 2.4 Spider

Just checked the rev counter, working as it should :D Still do have a strange electrical issue, sometimes when you switch on the ignition it takes some time to give everything 12v. Different amount of time before it turns on every time. When it takes long and you try to start it, it may just run or ...

Re: Dutch 2.4 Spider

Quite some progress once more. First some general maintenance; changed the gearbox oil and was planning to change the engine oil as well, but I could't get the sump plug loose... In fear of stripping the bolt I decided to have a go again when I get it up on a lift, instead of on axle stands. While I...

Re: Ballast resistor Magneti Marelli BZR 205A specs

I am able to on one I bought yesterday together with the bracket. It measures 1,6 Ohm (a 0,8 Ohm one is one the way), so I guess you should be able to.

Re: Ballast resistor Magneti Marelli BZR 205A specs

I have been informed by someone running a 101 Dinoplex that the resistance is 0,8 Ohms according to the specs on the resistor.

Re: Ballast resistor Magneti Marelli BZR 205A specs

Thanks for the quick reply Tobi. I read that parapraph differently, as in if you use a 202 instead of a 205, you should add another (1 Ohm) resistor in line with the stock Marelli resistor. “ For this replacement you need to add a single one ohm (1Ω) resistor in line with the Marelli ballast resisto...

Ballast resistor Magneti Marelli BZR 205A specs

Does anyone know the specs of the ballast resistor that should be used in conjunction with a Magneti Marelli BZR 205A on a 2400? I do have the coil, but seem to be missing the resistor (and bracket). According to the specs & features publication it should have a resistance of 0.7 to 0.9 Ohms, ca...
