murcy problems?
Discussion
sorry for the disturbance ....
but no one can help me ?????
I also f355 and ultima gtr and I never had any problems.
I read that the Murcy has trouble with 80,000 camshafts?
is that correct?
What other problems can have?
in Italy I'm looking 2:
a 2002 black and a yellow 2004
I can kindly advise please?
thank you

.... or are not courteous .... or are not fans 
mine has 60,000 miles.
problems: throttle bodies these go fairly regularly as the contacts in the throttle bod wear out. Get these converted to hall effect (a company in america does this at $400 per body form memory, exchange, and never have the problem again)
somewhere between 40,000 and 60,000 you're likely to have an issue with the crank pulley/balancer and this will require a new crank (mine has had this issue at around 50,000, and I notice Simon George's car did at about 60,000 I think).
the other issue is hoses; at this age many of the oil and vapour hoses are cracking; this is also a fire hazard. I am replacing at the moment (while i have he engine out for a new clutch) all the oil and vapour hoses as well as radiator hoses- because on inspection many where cracked/deteriorated from the extreme heat in the engine bay)
The front hydraulic lift mechanism- the front shocks, may leak- well known issue (same for diablo); especially now with age.
If well maintained they are simple and reliable; the problem is as most jobs require the engine out, labour gets high, and many smaller jobs are skimped on by some owners...

ciao Sidney very thanks for info.
I thought that the problem was on the cams, or something nearby.
I read in Italian _ EVO, I followed the car of Simon, who has done more than 300.000km.
incredible!
So just change the flywheel that will crack:is correct?
the front system-lift does not scare me, here are skilled factory who can restore
I wanted the manual and orange or green, but here in Italy, many black, minimum prices 100.000e ....
begin to rise in price, although there is economic crisis ....
I think we are the minimum prices
however, I'm still trying because I learned with the car, not to get caught by the heart, but use your head to buy ....
thanks again
