Gas Strut

Gas Strut

Descripción del producto:

Ferrari part number 84650400 is a gas strut that is used on the engine lid of the Ferrari 458 and 458 Spider. It is a hydraulic shock absorber that helps to open and close the engine lid smoothly and with ease. The gas strut is made of a metal coil spring and a cylinder of compressed gas. When the engine lid is opened, the gas expands and forces the spring to extend, lifting the lid. When the lid is closed, the spring compresses and the gas is forced back into the cylinder.

The gas strut is an important part of the engine lid assembly. It helps to ensure that the lid opens and closes properly, without slamming or binding. This can help to prevent damage to the engine lid and the surrounding components.

The gas strut is also a safety feature. It helps to prevent the engine lid from opening unexpectedly, which could pose a hazard to the driver or passengers.

If the gas strut on your Ferrari 458 or 458 Spider is damaged or leaking, it should be replaced as soon as possible. A faulty gas strut could cause the engine lid to open unexpectedly, which could lead to an accident.

Here are some of the symptoms of a faulty gas strut:

• The engine lid is difficult to open or close.
• The engine lid opens or closes slowly or unevenly.
• The engine lid makes a popping or clicking noise when opening or closing.
• There is oil or other fluid leaking from the gas strut.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to have the gas strut inspected by a qualified mechanic.
