Italian translation:tu pourrais faire un crochet
Explanation:
le regole per frasi condizionali in francese sono:

Si + ind. présent => ind. futur simple
Si + ind. imparfait => conditionnel présent
Si + ind. plus-que-parfait => conditionnel passé

Dunque c'é un errore nella frase...

Explanation:
Sì, è giusto perché la regola grammaticale vuole che "si" sia seguito dall'indicativo imperfetto (che corrisponde al nostro congiuntivo imperfetto). "Trouveras" sarebbe grammaticalmente scorretto.

Explanation:
ma se, per caso, tu ti trovassi nelle vicinanze di Kassel, allora potresti fare un salto da noi
non so se è la traduzione della frase in italiano che vuoi, comunque "trouvais" è giusto, è "pourras" che è sbagliato, dovrebbe essere "pourrais"
con "si" il congiuntivo imperfetto italiano diventa indicativo imperfetto in francese, ma il condizionale resta condizionale anche in francese
