Ferrari Mailing List: Re: air-flow metering blade search continues

[Michel Savard (mysavard]

Not much is wrong. But my mechanic finally found out why the car was running 
rich ALL the time. For years, I had to ask for a fuel-mixture twice a year. 
One in the spring (after a long winter sitting without running, it's always 
a good idea) and then once more during the summer. 2 weeks ago he saw that 
the round thin blade under the air filter (air-flow metering blade) was 
bent. I looked at it again yesterday and about 1/4 of the round blade does 
not touch the edge of the air inlet. Apparently, this cannot be corrected by 
hand. You need another one. Since Bosch does not make those anymore, you 
need to find a good used one.
I drive the car with no problem, but the bumper has that black powder on it 
and so does the rear of the car ALL THE TIME.
