If you look at alfa romeo repair information sites you find hundreds of people with the same complant I DONT GET ANY SPARK the electrical system on the 82 alfa is a nightmare ive herd about the battary has to have a full charge or check all the sensor including the one under the glove box or theres a broken wire somewhere,what i would like to know is how I can wire directly out of the fuse box and bypass all the sensors and any other parts that prevent the car from getting spark,and if you want a repair shop to do electrical work good luck finding someone who has the skills and understanding
