I'm grafting in a later motor -- 1991 944 S2 -- to my 1980 NA. I've got all the wiring and ECU from the S2. But that car has an external fuse box whereas mine has the one under the dash on the driver ...

I noticed the gearing is lower and it has an oil pump and small cooler (the cooler is missing - probably why I got the deal). Is the cooler necessary in a street application. What do you guys think ab ...

Thanks, mate!

Folks: The heater core decided to start leaking over the weekend while I was teaching my grandson to drive a clutch. As I'll be taking the car off the road in the Fall to begin its restoration/modific ...

Folks: I found my 1980 924 NA running rough, so I went under the far to check the 02 sensor. I found that it plugged into small plastic cylinder mounted on the cross member. But the connector was bro ...

Have to replace the accumulator. Noticed that 1976-78 accumulators a lot cheaper than 1980/Turbo versions. Would an earlier version work for my 1980?

Folks:

It started about a month ago. Car became a little hard to start after sitting idle for a half hour or more. But after a couple minutes of driving, the symptom goes away. Sounds like a " ...

Folks, here's the symptom: When I push in on the clutch, a squaling (not a very accurate description!) sound occurs. It goes away when I release the clutch pedal. I can't tell if there is a sound at i ...

Gentlemen, I'll be going the route of an engine transplant, and will need to install the 944 crossmember into my early (1980) 924. I've read (maybe in a post on this site) that the best way to do this ...

HELP! My '80 2.0 is beginning to lose it's cooling fans. It's old...

My biggest problem is that I live in Vegas. And it's getting hot. Does anyone have a line on replacment cooling fans? Or any fan ...

Thanks, Muz924. I did what you said: I couldn't clamp the hose near the intake air ducting, so I took a pair of pliers and -- while the car was running (at 1500 rpm) -- clamped the brake booster vacu ...

Folks:

Spent part of the day playing with the Auxiliary Air Regulator (also known as AAV).

I removed the unit from the car and plugged the line with a wooden dowel. Then started the car and watc ...

Hey, thanks for the info. But I'm puzzled by the abbreviations AAV or WUR. I don't recall seeing those in my Haynes manual.

Of course, our version was published for the US, which usually changes ev ...

Folks:

I recently went for an emissions check (just moved from rural Illinois to Las Vegas) and the system wouldn't run the inspection because the car would not idle at less than 1500 rpm!

When ...

What a quick response! Yes, it was the OTHER switch on the master cylinder (on the side at the front) that was the brake light culprit. It was hotter than Hades when I pulled the connector off. And th ...
