Thanks for all the input guys, looks like i have a few things to check on tomorrow.
C Clark, this thing has been one problem after another. Since i bought this car unoperable and have never owner or worked on a porchse, I have had no base line to compare to. A tight spot when turning the engine over by hand was my first delima. Pulling the engine out (again) I pulled her apart down to the case (again), couldn't find anything wrong. Put when i put her back together the tight spot was gone. I believe it was the clutch dragging. When I first pulled it out and cranked it over i noticed the clutch fork pulsating in and out. Neverless the problem is gone. Next the high pitch noise. I just went away one day! Very bizar! Could never determine where it was coming from. And it would go away when accelerating with or without a load. Very odd. Next the Carbs have been the focus of most my time. I've rebuilt them and have them synched, but still missfires at high throttle. Could be timing...its just hard to work on it when i can only get one start out of her between charges. The Starting problem has always existed, i'm just getting to it now. I've bought a brand new battery and new cable and am going to try to see if it makes a difference.
Kurt and Andrew, Thanks for the electronic suggestions. No My battery isn't in backwards. Nothing would work then. I need to pull out that old principles of electricity book from college. I'll do a few more tests and let you guys know what i come up with. I agree, that the battery is discharging somehow. Possibly a short somewhere?
Excuse all the gspelling error i hope you get the point I'm not going to double check...I'm to excited to get out to the garage!!
thanks again mike
