I cannot account for what your PDF file says, as Porsche never published information in that format, or on disc.
Oh, and just for your information, the 63 ft. lb. flywheel torque spec is for 993 air cooled engines, not the water cooled 996. |
Can you show me where it says the bolts have to be replaced? Or they are TYB? There are lots of people who say thing are this way and that way. You may be very well informed and you may be 100% correct. But I have this obsession to know if things are backed up by some reference or are they long standing beliefs. I trust what I can read not anyone's opinion or beliefs. I've worked on cars my 30+ years and while i'm new to the Porsche world I'm not new to cars. Frame off restorations, dozens of engine rebuilds, transmission rebuilds, transfer cases etc. The whole point of this post was to find an actual verifiable source like a factory service manual. No one is under any obligation to provide this information this is an open forum, but someones word is not what I'm looking for.
I wouldn't say 4 years is new either.
