Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I like the plates!

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

It appears that the spring/detent/whatever that blew out on my driver door handle is the one that makes sure the microswitch isn't open (or closed - not sure if it's NO/NC/momentary) unless you're pulling on the handle. I noticed my engine cranked really slowly when I drove back home from the office...
