Car Forum / Alfa Romeo Cars / December 2005Of misfiring and sidelight bulb....
A slight misfiring problem solved this morning (147 JTD) - caused by injector wire coming loose..... ....and the sidelight bulb - had to pay dealer to change it this time as I couldn't get the holder to budge..... my consolation for the labour charge is that it took them 1/2hr to do it! > A slight misfiring problem solved this morning (147 JTD) - caused by > injector wire coming loose.....

Mount an aftermarket alarm module *right* behind it, so that has to be unbolted first? Not that any PO of my car would have done such a thing......
