Left-handed threads on a 911
 
Which bolt or fastener has left-handed threads as to conventional right-handed threads on a 911 3.2?




Thank you for the reply,

Calilber

My 84 Carrera doesn't have any LH thread bolts as far as I know.

If anything, your main pulley.

tie rods

No, the crankshaft pulley bolt is standard (RH) thread.

Yes, tie rods – on pre-Turbo tie rods.
Throttle linkage at the engine has both L & R threads.

Another is on the fitting at the oil tank on the optional
front cooler, 1973 only.

Best,
Grady

I believe the air pump pulley was left-hand thread on a 79.

Can you see why Grady won a lot of Porsche tech quizes?

Yeah... a wealth of info and good to know info too!
I was certain my main pulley was LH, but I stand corrected as I only took it off once.
