Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Found a 4,000 square foot house on 6 acres with a 3,000 square foot, 15-foot high finished workshop/barn. Looking to see if it’s zoned for mixed use...might try to talk my old man into a partnership. We’ve been considering doing property management for absentee-owner properties, and I’d need a work...

Re: Winterizing the 996
Thanks, fellas. I think I'll order the CTEK as I've seen that name around before. Other than that, I should be set. Now to buy a beater that embarrasses the hell out of my kids when I go to drop them off. What did you drop them off with last year? By the way, wheel bearings don't like to sit with t...

Re: filling your gas tank
Well driving until the tank was half empty, and then filling it up (at a Chevron station) solved the problem. The gauge is working normally. And on the long drive, the car is such a joy. The crappy roads in Los Angeles/Southern California make trying to use the radio's touch screen a bumpy version o...

Re: filling your gas tank
The chevron issue could be that the shell incident soaked the exhaust filter. If that isn't working it screws with the auto shutoff pumps. Downside of the C4 is that it has a saddle tank setup to straddle the drive shaft. It is easy to piss the float off if you over fill it or let it get too low (l...

Re: Taycan has Torch Boy issues too
Watching this video of a Tesla chasing a Taycan...the lack of engine sounds is rather creepy.

filling your gas tank
Yes it seems simple enough...but every 996 I've owned has had an issue with the filler nozzle at Shell stations. In order to get the gas to flow into the tank, I have to insert it upside down. So a week or so back I was doing this and I accidently overfilled the tank. I waited and waited while it ke...

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
Today I drove it like I used to drive my 993. It is all coming back. 98% there.

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
Nothing special with it today. But felt guilty parking it out in the open in the condo guest lot. Covered it up...its only for one night. The Alfa gets the garage spot since it was just washed and at 10 am tomorrow I end the lease and turn it in 4 months early. Its an absolutely great "modern&q...
