Triangle of Death

Hey guys-
964 Turbo - but essentially close enough to 930 - How difficult (or possible) is it to replace the 3 seals in the TOD with motor in - and NOT removing the Fuel Distributor?

Thanks-

I only know the 930, but it should be do-able. Just a matter of what peripheral crap you have to move.

yeah I'm figuring/hoping to just remove the intercooler, move the ac compressor out of the way and remove airbox. Wasn't sure if there would still be a nut or something I wouldn't have access to...?
Thanks-

Here is a link to a website and forum where they are discussing it in a little more detail...But not directly pertaining to a 964

I lowered my engine about (911) about 3 inches to make it a lot easier.

Ok I'm close - problem is there is a little black bracket that supports the corner of the fuel distributor that is keeping the breather cover from lifting off/over the studs. I removed three 13mm nuts but the bracket won't budge. I don't see a fourth. Am I blind? What am I missing?

EDIT Nevermind - got it. It actually was being held captive by the vertical stud off the FD.
Project now completed. We'll see how long til this area leaks again.

Thanks in advance-
