Dive trip will be good to clear my head at the start of summer... Lots of seat time in the 944(weather permitting) alone, give me a chance to get everything sorted out....

Oh and whats wrong here?
your photo sucks?

i can relate to being burnt out with school. i'd be completely wonky by the end of the quarter or semester. afterward, i'd be odd (more than usual) for a week or so.

Also found that the rad drain plug was all farked up.... First time I've had it out since putting in a new one... Not sure WTF is going on there....

My belts aren't any too tight.... Can't get a reading with the cricket... It touches the other side first...

you are doing it wrong. the krikit is all about angle of deflection. you put it against the belt and press with one finger.

edit: or your belt tension is VERY VERY out of whack.

I am... Thats what I'm saying.....As soon as you put any pressure on it.... The long run of the belt goes over to the other side against the run on the WP side.... I'll read up on it more and see if I can get a better reading.... Tricky little bastard....

Good Freaking Morning.

Sid, how does the other distributor/rotor look

Amazing what condition those Porsche things can get in and still run.
