It has been over 20 years since a Porsche 924 Turbo found its way into my driveway. Well I just picked up a 1982 924 Turbo that was originally in Tennessee for many years. Have a long road ahead of me since the engine is will not turn more than a few degrees....but hey I am so happy to have another one to work on. Thanks for the add ...I was a member of the original 924 boards so e 20 plus years ago. I will post up pictures but she is Guards Red with 37,000 miles in the clock. I feel that is very accurate since it looks like this sat for many years.

Pull the head and see if the valves are bent I guess?
The block can be replaced for pennies if that's the problem cause it's shared with the standard 924.
That's where I'd start. Wish I'd bought a Turbo while I still could. |

Installed new battery, new ground cable, and resoldered the Positive leads and crimp for battery connection....guess what she spins and no noise.....going to get some plugs, oil, filter and injector cleaner...maybe i can get her to start.
I went back to the way back machine to try and find the original website myself and Bobby Dodd created back in 1999....such a long time ago....
