1984 928S...water pump/timing belt questions
Just traded my 1967 912 for a very clean, low mileage 1984 928S. Has 78,000 original miles, and appears to have had the w/pump and timing belt done at least once. I do not have it in my possession yet (in transit this week). I think I read that '84 and older 928's do not have interference engines...is that correct? I also think I've read the pump and belt should be done every 40k miles or so...is that correct? What kind of money am I looking at for parts and are there any places recommended to get rebuilt pumps or is that a bad idea? What should the job cost at a private shop (my guy only works on Porsche's)? I know these cars can have electrical issues, but what other things should I be concerned with? The p/steering rack is good (no leaks). Thanks, Dan
