Last week it was looking increasingly like the engine would have to come out. This week things are looking more hopeful for the InfluEnzo, my cheap Ferrari 308. I also get to start it up without a silencer on..!!!

This is the only KZfaq channel I watch where my stomach goes from normal, into knots, back to normal, into knots again, and finally somewhere inbetween as a smile breaks over my face as I hope that it will be ok in the end - every god damn video I watch. Its a real roller coaster ride every episode. And I don't even own the car, one like it, or have any vested interest, other than it all works out for you.

If your new exhaust flows better, you will need to adjust the carburetors to compensate. Be prepared to re-jet and re-tune the system.

My 2nd gen MX-5 developed a hole in the exhaust and a first it was hardly noticeable so I sort of grew into it sounding a tiny bit more well "more". Only then I had a drive that wen through a tunnel and oh my. Still it could be fun to a have a switch of sorts.

Phil B I’m afraid it’s a sign of the times. Unless it’s a classic of some sort we need to pass smog yearly. I’m planning a resto-mod as a loophole. However if it isn’t a legal restriction that makes you keep those fun killers on your toys.... shame... shame on you 😂😂😂.

Great to see your oil-in-coolant issue was not! Also, the exhaust silencer you've purchased looks a lot like the version I had on my 308 and it did sound fantastic! And yes a lift does make removal and install a much easier task. Good luck and keep having fun!

I'm 57 (based in East Sussex) - I *love* your videos. I love seeing you so happy with your toy. It makes me happy. Enjoy it and keep smiling. It's a pleasure to see you deriving so much pleasure - I'm not really into cars, but I have an 18 year old Honda which I've owned for 10 years and until recently I've had to make some repairs to myself. There is a definitely a certain satisfaction to be derived from doing repairs yourself and I too have gotten the bug of enjoying my car a lot more as a result of my fixes to mine. Can't wait to hear how the new exhaust sounds!

aha! I think that is what I suggested in my comment on your previous video, ie the boiling water during overheating has agitated crud in the radiator and also possibly a chemical reaction, different property coolant is defo something to look into, hope it rights itself after a good flush and fresh coolant, looking hopeful though which is good news.

This car has taken on a life of its own, and your enthusiasm for rooting out all it's imperfections is contagious and compellingly entertaining!! I have an old Jeep Wrangler TJ, and like the InfluEnzo, my Jeep seems to double-down just when I've fixed something and I'm feeling brilliant! One day it will be perfect! Anyways, I've always loved the 308 as my favorite car, and never missed an episode of Magnum PI! In fact, I was in Honolulu in '83, and looked for but never found Robin Masters' 308. Love watching these updates!!
