I'm catching up, so somebody else might have responded, but here goes:
The 4-cylider 90s came in three guises, 1.8, 2.0, and 2.0i (In common
with the 75, there may have been a 1.6 for the Italian market, but I
don't know.) The 2.0i had Motronic injection. Somebody on the list
(works at HP's Grenoble plant) has one. Sorry can't remember the name.

And now a question about the V6 variety (applies to other L-Jet V6s).
Does anybody know where I can get 14mm ID vacumn hose (runs from intake
hose to the AAD and thence to the back of the plenum). I'm blowed if I'm
going to pay $40 for two 12" pieces of molded hose from an Alfa Dealer.
Sources in Brisbane Australia preferred.
