This is very important, could help somebody...
I was told at the shop yesterday (Storz garage) in Denver. To express HOW important it is that the rubber lines in your engine having to do with Air / vacuums MUST remain pliable. If your hoses are getting brittle, or hard, you really should replace them.
There are stories of 911's not being able to start or stay running. After MUCH diagnosing, it turns out just a crack in the underside of a vacuum line was the problem.
My engine has JUST been pulled out and tranny replaced/rebuilt along with clutch, several oil lines, and vacuum lines, breather etc, pressure plate, seals, etc... while it was out they showed me all the lines, and explained that it is one of those things that can be very hard to diagnose.
JUST an FYI for you all! keep the rubber soft!!!
comments are welcome!
