So it sounds like what I said above, battery is good but charging system is bad and when running the engine, only the battery is used, hence the voltage drop after some time.

No, when the engine is warm, that's when the CHT is most needed. If it is cut open, missing or disconnected, the ECU "thinks" the engine is dead cold. So if the engine is in fact warm, it gets too...

6480 pulses per mile gives exactly 810 wheel turns per mile.
One mile is 1609 meters.
One turn of wheel is therefore 1609 / 810 = 1.9864 meters

This is confirmed by the wheel circumference. ...

None of them. It is a reed switch, so it is basically a simple passive switch that opens and closes eight times per wheel revolution. There are eight magnets for this.

I'm pretty sure he meant ohms and not k-ohms. Actually, 971 and 973 ohms are very good values for these sensors and they are very close to each other. At 970 kohms no way the engine would ever run. ...

Our host Pelican carries a M8x48 bolt with triple square head. Original Porsche brand or OEM. They are for 924 Turbo CV, so they should be strong enough. Only 2mm missing in length, that might work.
