It would have started earlier, I found that no matter how much I charged the battery I still need to plug in the 14 prong connector. With that resolved and realizing I needed to replace the fuel relay that was sitting on the seat, its running on all 6....

PFM

It jumped up on the road on its own power all the way to 5000 for a second. The last time I drove it, the heads were loose and all it did off idle is pop pop.
On top of the drive way on its own power.

Another one saved! Well done Bruce.

I sub'd all of your threads as you're a talented guy that does nice-detailed oriented work on our beloved aircooled 911s. I look forward to the next project!

Cheers
Jason

Awesome thread Bruce!

After a couple years of 964 ownership, I'm getting more and more comfortable working on my car, but I'm reaching the limit at what I feel comfortable with. I really wish I knew someone like you in my neighborhood. I need a mentor, anyone with Bruce's skill live near Chapel Hill, NC? I'm interested in every aspect of the car, so feel free to send me a message if you need extra hands?

Nice Work
 

I wish I was half as fast. SmileWavy

ummmm......Show us the 930 too
