Ferrari 412 Final Fixes: Suspension & Engine Repairs Completed | Tyrrell's Classic Workshop

 And here is Part II

Welcome back to Tyrrell's Classic Workshop for Part 2 of our Ferrari 412 restoration! In this concluding episode, Iain Tyrrell and technician Korrey dive into the intricate work that went into solving the suspension issues that plagued this classic grand tourer. With original parts no longer available, Korrey faced the challenging task of engineering bespoke modifications to replace the Boge components, ensuring that the Ferrari's iconic ride quality is fully restored. But that's not all. The Ferrari 412 was also suffering from severe fuel distribution problems, limiting the V12 engine to just 30% of its potential power. Iain takes us through the diagnostic process and shares how these issues were resolved, allowing the engine to deliver the thrilling performance it was designed for. Finally, join Iain as he takes this beautifully restored Ferrari 412 out for a road test to ensure everything is tickety-boo. Will the suspension and engine repairs hold up under real-world driving conditions? Watch as Iain puts this Italian masterpiece through its paces.


And of course so many postive comments on the Youtube channel. Interesting to see that he provides responses on many questions asked via Youtube. That must be time labour consuming as well, so nice to see he takes the effort to answer. Slightly dissapointed about the so called secret regarding the K-Jetronic hot start issue. I do have a Lancia Thema 8.32 with a K-Jetronic system but so far I never had that issue. But many other eighty cars were using the Bosch K-Jetronic system so there is ton's of info out there:



I did happen to have spotted this car online somewhere last week. And it only became apparent now its the same car. The fact it was spotted in Manchester was an easy give away:
