A friend of mine is fond of the saying:

I am fighting a smaller scale self imposed problem myself. When I replaced my hoses for the front cooler I ended up with a leak. I put the super tight twist on the hose and drove my car again today. It is still leaking.

I will take the entire thing apart again and look for any funny looking surfaces. It might well be just a cracked cooler fitting. That means a new cooler.

thanks for talking me off of the ledge. seriously. i was on about the third stage of mourning.

this is what i found: no paper towel in cylinder 4 (i found that paper towel stuck in the rose bushes next to the car, mystery solved). thus, cylinders 1, 2 and 4 are clear. i put the pieces of the paper towel together that i got out of cylinder three. there is about a 3" x 3" piece missing. i am going to do what you suggested and put it back together in the morning.

it was great talking to you. thanks again. after it fires up and things are chill, let the ribbing begin.

No.
I am in house move mode.
Waiting for some trick tyres to turn up.
They dont make the R Spec in 275 in the Dunlop(best track tyre)
So I am going 255 and 225.

Max, I looking at buying another Porsche.
Something Road reg, but set up for the track(light weight)
These 930s are now worth big money over here.
I dont want to mod the value out of this car.
