Good morning folks.

We will be off to the PCA monthly breakfast soon. I suspect only a few folks will drive their Porsche. It is cloudy and the possibility of stuff falling out of the sky is elevated. Only the few that have a Porsche as their daily driver will drive one. Mine will stay clean and dry in the garage.

My road (and everything else) is white again already this morning

Mornin

Oh boy, I get to wait for the social worker to come by and fill out the paperwork to get Mom enrolled in hospice.

well, look who wandered into the stijn thread..... :)

my neighbor and i are in full squirrel removal mode.

i just fell off my chair.... pelican wants $280 for a throttle position switch....

No comment at least not in public

apparently the TPS for the turbo is different than the other 944's.... why did i sell my '83?

they are $255 from 944 online.... sigh....

rick, i am about to attempt to clean the internals of the TPS. any tips, comments, etc.?

Q-D cleaner and lots of if, that stuff is F-M

the issue is that the idle is often slow to drop back to idle RPM. i suppose it could be the idle valve, too. i was expecting a lot of blow-by oil in the TPS. there was none. in fact, the throttle body seemed pretty darn tight/sealed.

i see an intake removal in my near future. and paper towels. LOTS of paper towels.

Live large, use actual shop rags

i think i'll just drape a surgical towel over the entire set of intake ports. much less likely to leave in place while installing the intake manifold.

Awe come on man, I gotta have my fun somehow

$125 from ********

Another s&#@ day here. Perfect motivation to do taxes. Thankfully a little $ is coming back this year.

We got eight inches of S before the sleet showed up and we are supposed to get rain later

I think we're hitting 37 before late thunderstorms. Don't know if I'll get a hit of golf in today or not.

Sheeeeeeet! The front yard is flooded and the point of origin appears to be the sprinkler solenoid pit. :eek:

Hmm, the inlet coupling to one solenoid has split. Bugger!

s&$@ has morphed into freezing rain. Lovely. :(
