Case plugs?
When cleaning my case, the machine shop removed two case plugs to clean the oil galleys.
Can anyone tell me where I can buy replacements? Thanks Tristan |
Once I had my machinist make them another time I had the machinist put in threaded plugs.

If you know the part number, you can type it into our search engine at the top of this page, and it will tell you if it's still available.

I don't think they have a part #.

Why not use the threaded plugs? Seems they are more secure than a pressed in plug with epoxy on the outside.

I am a big believer in using threaded plugs after the old press in kind have been taken out.

Does anyone know the part numbers?
Thanks |

Chris,
I agree, it's just that Wayne made it sound like there was....oh well, maybe he didn't read the question. Where did you get the threaded ones? Tristan |
Very often, with parts like these, Porsche makes replacements that do indeed have a part number. You can sometimes find them on the parts diagrams - they typically don't have a photo or number on the drawing associated with them. A prime example would be a master cylinder rebuild kit - it's on there, but you have to look for it.
Just like the piston squirters - they come included in the case, yet there is a separate part number for them. Another example would be the covers on the end of the cam towers. These also come installed, but are also available separately too. That is what I meant - I just didn't have hours to try to find the part number (from the old parts books). Yikes, everyone seems to be on my case today... -Wayne |
Wayne,
You're being too sensitive :) I guess you're just too used to all the kudos and accolades. So, the big question is: if I call Pelican will the reps know the part #? Tristan |
Tristan
Did you ever find a source or part number for the oil galley plugs? |
Cliff,
Thanks for asking. I did not. I just got my machine shop to make some plugs and fit 'em. About $50. Tristan |
