Looks like a detent from one of the synchronizer hubs. Do you have a picture of the other side?

Got it. The pulley on the spare head actually has the dot on the rear. I am going to swap them out. The one on the car is spotless but no dot so out it comes. I guess this one was an odd ball.

Thats the thing, the dot is actually on the front of the pulley not on the back. Also the spare head I have is assembled the same way. The other thing I notice is that on you timing sprocket your ma ...

So I have been chasing problems around the turbo and decided to get back to basics. I went to check the timing and the marks are not lining up correctly. The dampener and the flywheel marks line up ...

Sorry dude but that is usually the first thing to fall off a Porsche. Go figure. You can get that info from Porsche but it is expensive and more often then not it is not worth the expense.

Well I hope it does. I am in the process of reinstalling my intake as we speak. I bought a spare like 8 months ago, thinking I may need it. Dam CIS and it's sensitivity to vacuum leaks! The carb c ...

I recently had some similar issues with my car. I checked timing, fuel pressures, frequency valve, etc. The only indications of an issue were like you, seat of the pants feel and two or more cranks ...

I know cast iron can be welded. The real question is, is it worth the money. I had my old/bad housing welded by a friend who wanted to try out a new type of rod. It still needs to be machined but i ...

My opinion would be no. The turbo I removed from my car had similar cracks in the hot side housing. The crack when heated will expand into the turbine opening and damage the turbine.

This mod really would not be very hard. You would tap the hole where the plastic elbow goes for a threaded swageloc elbow. Then using the swageloc portion crimp the ferrel down on the oiling tube. ...

I have been MIA for awhile so I thought I would give an update on the situation. I am in the process of re-indexing my torsion bars. It was the last thing on my list of mechanical fixes. I am not l ...

I am unsure about the shock selection for the sport suspension. I want to say it had konis up front and boge gas charged in the rear. I do know that the sport suspension had up rated torsion bars an ...

one switch is for full throttle enrichment the other is for idle. You may have an exhaust leak at the turbo.

I'm not sure if it helps but my car had super stiff steering. I mean I had to two fist it even at higher speeds. It ultimately ended up being the upper strut bearings. One was completely frozen the ...
