RE: [alfa] thermostatic actuator

["John S." <roadtrip999@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mark - As long as you can achieve a gap between the reference screw and the 
throttle arm on the back of the injection pump of .019" (with the long rod 
disconnected) then you're probably ok. Use the adjustment screw below the TA 
in the FI pump to acheive this. You're warm up idle speed may be a bit high, 
but as long as you can get .019" pump gap when the engine is at 175 deg or 
above, you're ok for normal running. Adding shims below the TA piston is 
redneck engineering. If you're TA is leaking and getting weak, the proper 
course of action is to get it rebuilt, which can be done for as little as 
$115.
