Few cars evoke the passionate experience that comes with owning an Alfa. But Alfas can be demanding, frustrating cars to own. They are not so much unreliable, as often difficult to understand and troubleshoot. The Alfa Romeo Owner's Bible gives you precisely the kind of information you need to buy, maintain and enjoy your Alfa.

Head gasket repairs, valve adjustments, camshaft timing, carburetor and SPICA fuel injection tuning, and driveshaft "donut" replacement are just a few of the many maintenance and repair procedures explained and backed up by hundreds of step-by-step illustrations -- valuable information crucial to owning, understanding and driving an Alfa, even if you don't work on it yourself.

You will also find tips you should know when buying a used Alfa, specifically, where to look for rust problems, or signs of neglect or abuse, plus high-performance tuning for street and track, choosing accessories, and fascinating history.
