Think she just needed to be driven...
So my issues with high idle.. bad mileage... hesitation and my door not locking seem to have slowly gotten better and better over the last 2 weeks.
It would seem this car sat a while before I bought it. Still need to dig through and do some stuff. I've got a gigantic box of parts on the way for that... so on my days off coming up here (my mini vacation I took) I plan on doing just that... I was able to fix quite a bit of stuff thanks to the suggestions you guys gave me too. Thanks guys. Loving this car.

I believe it's true of all machines...the most reliable performance comes with regular use.

Yeah I feel bad when one of my vehicles doesn't get plenty of miles on it. I try to drive them as much as I can. Seems this 911 must have sat a while. It was on a lot for a long time.
Going to try the pb blaster/wd-40 trick on the aux air valve. Read that some people were able to loosen them up with a good squirt when the valves stick. It is BETTER but still sticking once in a while. On another note... Is it possible to do the clutch without dropping the engine? I do not have a lift...
