Cinquecento My Silver 1242 Cinq

Feels like it he he. Will guestimate a 0-60 at the weekend but really need it on the rollers, eager to know. Pulls very well at motorway speeds, great for overtaking. The economys not as bad as I thought neither.
 
oo very nice, is it quick?

A question that would only be asked by someone who has never experienced a spirited drive in a Turbo Cinq ;)

Caney, what can I say mate... Awesome, just awesome :worship:

I would still love to have one some day :)

Looking forward to pics of the finished article :D
 
Ok haven’t given it serious beans yet as weather wasn’t permitting but did keep getting a whiff of petrol. It seems to be weeping from around the hose joining to the 2nd injector so gonna go get a better fitting jubilee or maybe a proper injector clip.

However the bigger concern was seeing some fuel bubbling within the PVC hose leading into the cabin to my boost gauge. I took the hose off from an un-used induction vac point on the back of the throttle body. Would this create any issues? I have taken the MF2 off a similar feed that used to go to the induction breather on the car.

Haven’t seen any smoke to suggest over fuelling might be the case, but besides that the car seems fine so far as does the boost gauge despite there being fuel in the pipe..

Here are pics of the finished article after a little wash, engine bay still needs tidying up next summer.

There is a proper petrol hose clip u can get. I use them for tightening boost hoses and the like. The jubilee tends to not tighten it properly all the way round. Where as the petrol hose clip is a better design.

could be the pipe rubbing on strutbrace, under load fuel pipe rubs against the strut brace causing it to perish has happened with a few others aswell as mine.
