timing belt video???
Just a silly question. Has anybody seen or know of a video that will walk one through the steps of replacing the belts on a 944. I have read many posts, clarks garage, haynes, etc on the how to's. Want to do it myself.
Just curious. 86 944 n/a |

Yep I got and it is helpful, also has some other tune up tips.
I don't think Pelican has them for sale (last I checked). I got mine from Performance.

I've kicked around making one if there was enough demand for one.

I have not performed the belt changes on a porsche before. I have read many posts and read the manual. I can say there are "ALOT" of p/nuts that have a boat load of questions( check the 100's of posts") about the what's , why's, and the how's. Anybody that that can come up with a "good" and "complete" CD on how to change the belts on various years of the 944 would make a some bucks. I would be in line to buy it. The manuals are good but many of the people who have worked on 44's for years "know" the in's and out's. I would love find to some one in my area that would show me how to change the belts the right way the "first" time. The cost of replacing the belts, rollers, seals and the like can run from 1200 to 2000$ in my area. I have performed much of the repairs to the few I have owned. The belts are key and the ramifications of not doing right the first time are huge. I really like the 44's but that is a chunk of change. Yes, I agree, if you can not afford don't buy one. But by all accounts the process is straight forward. It's the little things that p/nuts need help with.
So I urge anybody with the experience to come up with one. |
