Hi thanks for all the replys and welcomes!
sorry i have not been able to reply work and holiday weekend with family friends
and i hope everyone here had a great weekend also! yes after reading i found out that i should have had a PPI done but ah well live and learn if it ends up looking like it will cost too much i may have to look for another one (im hooked now no turning back lol) or suck it up and fix it i dont know yet. i am on oahu. it ran good when i got it but the transmission grinds when i get in gears but now just a few days ago it stopped running. well i was on the freeway and it started to sputter a little around 3k rpm so i turned around went home it sputtered/hesitated all the way home. i ran it a few days ago and it would run then it would die out but now i try to start it and it will fire up then almost immediately die. it is blowing alot of white smoke out of the exhaust. from previous car experience i think white smoke is oil burning i dont know very much about these porsche cars though if you have any ideas please let me know thank you very much take care oh yes as for vin numbers 9116201545 on my reg certificate i cant find any numbers on the door jams or dash. under the engine i saw 901.101.102.7R on the engine part near the fan not sure what its called: 6461653 with some kind of star at the beginning and end of those numbers. on one of the intake manifold runners on the passenger side theres a triangle then 9111101692R when i looked at the transmission i was not able to see the numbers. thanks for any info or any help!
