Got moms washing machine fixed tonight. We had to replace the main bearings. They were SLOPPY, and very close to locking up. It runs much quieter now for some reason...

Morning/Afternoon gents.

Do you do Dryers? Mine is sounding more like a Harley each day. Not good.

Good morning,

Spent yesterday in the bay.
The engine bay, that is... Cleaning... Lotsa nooks and crannies, a bitsj to clean, and it doesn't look like I cleaned a lot either.
Should I replace the soundmat I removed, or just leave it out?
Today is parts clean day

Picking up Bilsteins shocks and 964 cams later this week.
Then everything goes to the mechanic.
Who's up for a ride??

Like I said, the engine bay is black and 26 years old. I just removed dust and grime. The age and color still make it look kinda the same as before.
Also wiring, they look clean, but they don't look new. I wish I had the cash to do it all from scratch but somebody fuched up and my 185 million euros ended up in Scotland....

Whats the sound mat like?
If it looks OK just give it a clean.

It fell apart, crumble crumble after 26 years.....
Seeing that I have an opened up air filter box and a dual in dual out M&K muffler, it may be a good idea to replace it.
