You can ignore the vacuum line on the distributor. Set the idle timing at 10 or more degrees advanced. On our 924 race cars, we set them to about 20 degrees and a good distributor will advance to ar ...

I wonder what shipping is both ways across the Atlantic

I talked to Matti here on the east coast and he said he could drop some off on his way to Wisconsin. I'm in for one, Matti is in for on ...

Apparently they start making a noise and vibrating. If the car is intact, it's a pain to remove and re-install. In your case, you are closer than I am to doing all that work (pulling and replacing t ...

Guys, I went to the Carlisle PA Porsche swap and sell yesterday to show some of my 356 and 912 engines. There was a fellow across the aisle from me who was advertising 944 torque tube refurbishment. ...

A paint job is only as good as the work beneath it. As your painter what he recommends that you do. Since it has been painted before, I suspect that all of that would need to be sanded off and a clo ...

I was instructing at Porsche club events (356s and 911s) back in the '70s when the 924 came out. The first student car that I drove looked great until I hit the gas pedal. WTF??? what's wrong with th ...
