Hello! Bought mine a week ago. Built 12/1987. Has now 13.000 km and is in _very_ good shape (old-man-car; hand-washed). Are there any helpful links? (as i don't know how fast i can go in the gears and so on...) greez, Danny (m,38) from Berlin/Germany/Europe/Terra >Hello! > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >Are there any helpful links? >(as i don't know how fast i can go in the gears and so on...) http://www.citroen.mb.ca/citroenet/passenger-cars/psa/visa/visa01.html#visa http://www.citroenvisa.net/index.htm http://www.citroenvisaclub.nl/  SignatureIan > Hello! > > Bought mine a week ago. > Built 12/1987. > Has now 13.000 km and is in _very_ good shape (old-man-car; hand-washed).

Yes - the 2-cylinder. They wrote in the handbook, if engine "new" up to 25 / 40 / 70 km/h in gear 1 / 2 / 3, but not faster. As it has no rpm-Meter I am a little bit unsure... Now I ordered a technical Help-Book, maybe there is a list inside. Thx, Danny >> Hello! >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > If the engine goes bang, that's too quick. > Yes - the 2-cylinder. > > They wrote in the handbook, if engine "new" up to 25 / 40 / 70 km/h in > gear 1 / 2 / 3, but not faster. Right, that's to keep the revs low to "run the engine in" - help the new components to wear to each other, and ensure a long life. That's only for the first couple of thousand km, though. After that, just drive it. > As it has no rpm-Meter I am a little bit unsure... Don't worry about it. You won't over-rev it. The power starts to go away a LONG time before you'll hurt it. Use all the revs - the two-cylinder engine, both 2cv and Visa, loves to be driven hard, and driving it too carefully is one of the best ways to kill it. Just keep plenty of good clean oil in the engine, and have it serviced properly, including cleaning the oil cooler (behind the fan at the front of the engine). vMax = 1. 34 km/h 2. 59 km/h 3. 89 km/h 4. ? (only theoretically...) This is for the 2Cyl - 652 ccm - 33 HP, values not to damage engine by over-rpm. greez, Danny SignatureDipl.-Kfm. Daniel Grade, Bankkfm.
