This might help (I'm Tony H on that forum) https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/how-does-the-wear-on-this-clutch-look.535345/#post-144994410

You're welcome. Aside from the engine and transmission this applies to the 4200 as well.

Here's the manual for the 3200. There's a description of the HVAC and a wiring diagram. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/0uks7o2g897x21yvabf25/ALmY_dSYZTjYvMfsIpdC710?rlkey=wbr505vde7o1qqq3xohawz3wa&st=tj7g3nsb&dl=0

For those that still have their covers, just unplug the washer relay. Unless you take your Maser off-road the chances are not high that you need the washers.

Maserati's are an interesting study in value. The days of buying a car as a piece of art and never driving it as it appreciated may be past (look at recent auction results). That said, in a world where a guy pays $6 million US for a banana duct taped to the wall means all bets are off...

"Possibly"...not a ringing endorsement, but better than no recognition at all.

There is a link between the cable lever and the transmission that probably has disconnected. It's supposed to be set to 75 mm. It looks like a little turnbuckle, but it is not, so you have to take it off to adjust. The transmission defaults to the 3/4 slot. As the bandit said in "The...

Any chance the balance (left/right) is set wrong?

Been chasing a rattle that came from my door /wheel well on an 02 NA LHD Spyder. The problem was the horns were loose. They are cantilevered from a flimsy sheet metal above the LF wheel. You have to take out the gravel guards in the wheel well to get access. I made a reinforcement for the...

To take that cover off requires removing the crankshaft damper. This is major work. What I did on mine was clean the edges of the block and cover surfaces and I applied a silicone sealant externally. It's beginning to leak now but it worked for about 6 years. Another thing you can do is this...

This is for the 3200, but the door wiring should be the same. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/q5crjaj44y6xxdm77n9py/h?rlkey=3vynxlv8xfb0gr7msr90vwxxb&dl=0

I've uploaded a 3200GT set of manuals to Dropbox. The 4200 is similar except for the engine and drivetrain. There's a lot of useful info here. It takes a little hunting but there's a good description of the A/C system along with wiring diagrams...

The cover hood (the door) has a switch on the latches that make sure they're engaged. The latches are adjustable and if set too tight they might not properly engage. That may be why some people burn out the latching motor and it may cause a problem like yours. The manual release behind the...

For an engine with a 100k miles on it the internals look in great shape. It's a shame that probably some of the best engines ever built are sitting idle because owners are afraid to drive them. My Spyder is my summer daily driver so it does get used.

The chains and guides look in great shape, did you actually find something broken/worn out? Most importantly, did this work solve the problem? Can't the hydraulic tensioners just be changed externally?
