Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?

So apparently the battery was putting out a whooping 35 cranking amps... Yeah... Of course it wants attention while it's there: - CV boot is torn on a front axle and their experience is that 9/10 of the time when they disassemble it to put the new boot on they find that the shaft is damaged and need...

What about the P!gs? There are at least 3 P!gs I know of owned by this small band of miscreants!

Yeah. Probably under inflated to boot due to the cold and being terrible owner. Those were some mighty fine flat spots it had to work out :lol:

Really did not want to start after sitting 3 weeks in sub-freezing temps, but it did crank. 30 degree PS2s make for a smoooooooth ride for the first mile or so until they warm up. Took a nice pic of it to post in the pic thread on the way home, started up and ...
