2.7 Engine Noise
Weird. Looks like some screw has worked its way loose. Notice the flame. I want to use the car this weekend. Can i temporarily stick any screw that fits in there before getting the right part? Is there a concern with the screw going too deep?

Nice light show, that cannot be good.
I have no idea, but will give you a free BUMP. Now I have one more thing to look out for.:( |
One of you plugs for secondary air injection ports blew out. Pelican has them under PEL-BRC-02 Porsche 911 & Turbo CIS Fuel Injection - Page 13

Air injection port in exhaust outlet, put a screw back in!

SWEET! Thanks for the help. And only $3! Can I put something temporary in there for my weekend trip? Any concerns about going deep with the screw?

It's a metric plug. You should be able to find one at a well stocked hardware or auto parts store.

Fantastic, you guys are the best. I tried some screws that are laying around to no avail. I'll get a range of plugs tomorrow and hope for the best.
BTW, the other plug are a square fitting. How annoying are those to take out?!? |

No luck. I tried a number of different ones. They aren't in clean perfectly square shape to begin with, couldn't get a good grip. I'll get an array of bolts and hope for the best. Wish me luck.

Tazzie, thanks for the help. Really appreciate it.
If it is M8 I'll have a problem. I tried an M8 and an M10 last night. M10 too big, M8 Just too small. I hope this doesn't mean the threads have been stripped. I may have to retap the hole. |
It's a strange size. I couldn't find anything that would fit at the hardware store. I believe the plug that PP sells also fits a 914 brake caliper allen bolt adjustment port.

10mm fine thread, get it at Lowes

Flat6pac, thanks for the reference. That is exactly what I got...well, honestly, I bought a range of sizes just in case, turns out it was M10 x 1.25 x 20. It fit perfectly. Tightened it up and took the car for a spin. Nice and quiet, drove like a charm. Thanks again for the help! I purchased the original parts from PP but this will do for now.
There it is on the right. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1370046620.jpg |
