Review
Review from Alfa Romeo Owners Club Magazine In the same series as 'How to Power Tune Alfa Romeo Twin-Cam engines', this 128 page Veloce book on the DCOE and DHLA carburettors, once so familiar in Alfa engine bays, has now entered a third edition and this time in full colour. New illustrations have been added to this popular title and the pictures and diagrams are clear and succinctly labelled. The content covers strip down and inspection, rebuild, manifold preparation and fitting. There are also chapters on air filters and ram tubes, fuel and octane ratings, identifying and choosing components, testing, set-up and problem solving. Everything you might want to know is here in easily digestible form, though this book is inevitably 'more reference than read'. Read this book and you should be able to work on your sidedraught Alfa.
