Jeff, yes I suppose you don't have to ride on the bitumen for more than 200 yards before you hit the dirt really, but here, so many of the cars are like Toorak Tractors , sure never see the dirt, and yes me, I'm one of those people, got a big farkin car too, had to keep up with the rest.

Hey Janet,

Have you downloaded the workshop manuals and PET from Manuals - Porsche yet? I use PET Ver 6, but I've just discovered there's a V7 available at Porsche PET 7.3

The diagram in the PET may help you get some idea while you wait for my photos.

Cheers

Plenty of Toorak tractors around these parts too

For many years the old girl was the family bus. These days she's a dedicated bush basher - no middle or rear row anymore (replaced with shelving and draws, etc).

15 years on and only 200k on the clock, she's still in pretty good shape. Planning to get another 50k from her before retirement. That'll equate to about another 10 years.
