There are several under that brand name and other brand names. I guess the bird filters links to other vendors. The one you want runs around $50-$60, and is a large kit.

Acetone is a great solvent. I would use something cheaper and less volatile first. If there's still crud in it, then go for the stronger solvents. Gasoline works very well too. Of course, keep...

Re the link. Go to Amazon and search for "Betool fuel injection tester". It's a complete kit that has far more than you need for your 911, but it's only about $50, so buy the whole thing.

If the torsion bars do not have gouges or other damage, you can reuse them. Clean up any corrosion, preferably by sandblasting, and repaint with a heavy corrosion resistant paint. Those rubber...

Correct analysis. The CSV only operates while cranking. Thus, you have to test it while cranking, or provide 12v to the yellow wire of the TTV (thus to the CSV), and then ground the blk/red wire. ...

The toe-in adjustment will set the distance from the torsion bar to the end of the spring plate. Thus, there is no spec for that distance.

I sanded mine down a little to get it to fit more easily too. If it gets too stuck in place, you will pull the wire part out of the rubber part, so use silicon grease to prevent that.

I'v been meaning to install one of those valves for several years. Maybe I'll get around to it now that the cold wet weather has covered the PNW. What model/brand did you use?

As nickel stated, make sure the t-bars are centered in the torque tubes. if one is too far in, it will push the other side out by that amount. But, I don't think that's what is going on here.

I've come to appreciate women mechanics more. Although they don't have the same strength that most men do for big jobs, they can get their smaller hands into places I can't.
