Re: Where did the coolant go?

It's always been my goal to leave absolutely nothing for "the next guy" - unless the next guy is the tow truck operator who pulls the charred remains out of the ditch. :D Also, what are "maintenance records?" The only records I've got are recorded here... Maintenance_Log.png Is ...

Re: Where did the coolant go?

Anyone want a gently-used GT3-look 996? I'll make you a deal. My worst coolant leak was at ~150MPH in in 5th - it was blasting around the water pump shaft sufficiently that I could see a vapor trail in the mirrors. Is it safe to assume you will print a copy of the above and put it in your file of m...

First time out of the shed since last fall, so the riding mower at the auto museum needed a jump start. Add your own caption: IMG_1716.jpeg Brothers from a different Mother...or really same Mother to be accurate. On a logical note: I can't believe you don't carry a "starter pack" in the 9...

Re: Where did the coolant go?

Is there an antifreeze smell after driving up to full temp and parking in the garage? Mine drove me crazy for months before I found the water tracks on the back side of the water tank. Water never hit the floor...never. I even put white poster board underneath the car...nothing. Tank was cracked in...

Re: Where did the coolant go?

Oil cap is clean I'm thinking a small leak somewhere as well. What is interesting is the level drops just by sitting for a couple of weeks. I think I need to remove all the plastic panels from underneath to expose all the pipes and maybe I will see a small leak Is there an antifreeze smell after dr...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I got the 914 ready for a sunset photoshoot yesterday, only to have it start raining just as the photographer showed up at my house. So, glad I spent a couple of hours detailing it. It goes into the shop tomorrow morning to get an oil leak fixed along with checking out a possible intermittent gas l...
