[rinarage]

I recently purschased a 1985/1 944 and so far this is what i've noticed:


I'm curious to see if the car has a blown head, but I can't tell. Here are the symptoms i've seen:
-white smoke (sweet smell)
-oil/brake fluid/power steering leaks (where can I find gaskets for these leaks?), but NO coolant leaks
-I just flushed my radiator today and saw that coolant was normal green, so that brought some relief
-car has a rough idle
-the car is rather slow. I know the 2.5 NA is not fast by today's standards but still, it gets to 60 in double figures which is a little worrying/annoying since it used to be 8 seconds or so when it was new.

Then there' a problem with the speedometer assembly and signal light assembly:
-speedometer and odometer havent worked since I got the car
-all other gauges work, and the tachometer works about half the time. It will just randomly come to life.
-On the assembly where the signal light controls are, I cannot turn off the high beams. I push back and forth and have tried to manuever it anyway possible, but when the headlights are on, high beams are always on. Is the switch somewhere else?

To add to the leaks:
-Whenever I fill up gas, the car smells strongly like gas afterward. Is there a tube which passes through the interior of the car which may have been broken? I looked in the right wheel well in the trunk one day and found a ton of water in there (and i had looked a month before and it was completely clean). Anyone have any clue about this?

My A/C:
-Only hot air comes out of the vents and when I bury my foot the air goes to the floor. I'm pretty sure this is a leak, but how do I repair this on my own (or can I?)

I'm only 17 and an amateur mechanic, so any tips on these issues would be much appreciated. Thanks!
