A-Plus Engine

Post by Richard_Wale » Wed Mar 05, 2014 11:13 pm

I am hoping someone has the answer to this question?

Was the 1275 A-Plus engine fitted in the later Marinas or Itals? If so what by-pass circuit was used? Did it retain the pump to head by-pass hose, or used the sandwich block like the Metros and Minis?

The A Plus engine was used in 1.3 Itals from 1980. The pump retained the bypass hose to the head. The pump used a viscous fan rather than a fixed fan, so the end if the pump shaft has a threaded section rather than a flange.
