Alfa Twin Spark - VARIATOR repair guide

[@Kladenec]

Thank you very much for the information. Today I tried to repeat everything you are talking about and I succeeded. The variator now has no play. It remains to check by installing it in the engine

@@Kladenec the hardest part was compresing spring and putting back together, right?haha I had 4-5 attempts

[@Kladenec]

​@@dominiksruk2855 Yes, this is the most difficult stage. I managed it on the third try. But probably there are pieces of plastic tie left in the housing and I need to disassemble the variator again and repeat everything again 😢

I apologize in advance, I am writing with the help of a translator.😢

​​@@dominiksruk2855 How many km have you driven on the phase variator after repair?

[@dominiksruk2855]

​@@Kladenec i also had to reassemble again because of broken zip tie You can also try fishing nylon cable as they are strong but wont break into pieces. After repair i passed 5k kilometers. Most of them hard driving No issues so far Engine starts and drives better

Nice video. But one thing. There IS. Two generation. Of varíator. The most important IS the Big hole 3mm in line with Big hole, IS for oíl preasure. In some model you can se 100% alignment and its ok too. The most important.know 2 holes 2,5mm and one 3mm.

[@victor-sc2ed]

You can use second generation on a car with first generation. Are compatible.

@@victor-sc2ed yes Before two years i repaired it wrong way Just inserted splines on camshafts(without looking to align holes)and installed everything on car So two years of diesel noise and the Worst lots and lots of freeplay on camshafts I could move everything with hand

А саму работу вариатора под давлением на стенде проверяли после сборки со смещением , он срабатывает ?

[@dominiksruk2855]

Variator is in car now for two months. Works perfectly More power on low rpm and no noise at all

[@walterrussi2058]

So you don’t change any part of the variator? You just disassambled and riassambled in the correct way?

[@dominiksruk2855]

I had to buy used variator because my was badly worn

[@walterrussi2058]
