Pull the wire and stick in a spare spark plug. Have someone crank the engine while you ground the body of the spark plug (just touch it against a metal part of the engine). If you see a spark at th ...

There are companies that make the entire wire loom for 356s, 911s and 912s but the cost is rather high unless there is no choice. In your case, each of the wires in the loom is color coded and with s ...

Possible low battery charge. Low current draw items will work but starter solenoid wont. Turn on headlights and watch as you try to start the engine. If the headlights dim quite a bit the battery is ...

Cedric, that's so true and I did it when I raced 911s. But in SCCA, the 924 was recently approved for H Production (in addition to Improved Touring-B where it has been for a number of years) but with ...

I'm interested for my race car if the fuel ratio can be easily adjusted. Presently I'm still running the factory CIS and after a lot of electronic adjustments to the Lambda box to get to 12.8 CO I'm ...

Great idea!

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 ...

My '79 NA came with five lug, four wheel discs and had the small brake booster. Works just fine on the race track.

Diamond made some pistons for the 931 engines and some higher compression pistons for the NA engines. I believe Vaughan had some made as did I. Dan sold some of the turbo version Diamond pistons.

Sold for $51K. I'm not sure if I feel disappointed for the seller or happy for the buyer.

Check your timing. It may not be advancing enough. On my race car I start at 20 degrees with full advance to 41 at 6500 rpm. Street advance should be a bit lower.

Lots of folks here have attempted to rebuild the FD. Care installing the new rubber seals and a proper very thin application of Loctite 542 on the metal gasket is all that is needed.
