    Because of the "lazy" cranking I would check the battery on a reliable tester and if it is okay then start looking for a poor chassis ground.
  2. Loren
    A 993 holds about 11 (US) quarts.
  3. Loren
    Try 9504 or 9502
  4. Loren
    Harbor Freight - $4.99 (everyone should have a set of these IMHO)
  5. Loren
    :welcome:

    The parts list only shows the high flow pump for the GT2. But the GT2 also has a different fuel tank (no 4WD) - so I don't know if that would make any difference.
  7. Loren
    The ATF is cycling through the cooler (along with the coolant) so there are those lines and main pan gasket. I would inspect those first.

    can i get part number for black "carrera" badge for 2001? thanks 996.559.237.06.70C Carrera logo in rally black -- MSRP $24.52. thanks Loren! do you happen to have the instructions of placement on the rear lid....below the ridge on 99-01? again, thanks http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=24349

    That TSB is about cooling hose clamps - so if they were leaking that most likely would be coolant. I am in Roseville so if you can't find the problem - perhaps I can have a look at it.

    Did the PST2 or PIWIS say it was setting activating the radio? Perhaps it would make sense to disconnect the "other devices" and see if the radio works again.
  11. Loren
    Did you try the button on the fuse box front (near your left foot)?

    Sorry for the quality of the diagram but this is the quality of the pic in the service manual. Item 5 is the wrench.
  14. Loren
    If the engine changes (for the better) without the MAF plugged in then the MAF may or may not be working. The only way to tell for sure would be with a diagnostic tool that can read the MAF air flow. Please do a search here as cleaning the MAF has been covered many many times.
  15. Loren
    If you can find someone with a PST2 or PIWIS there is a test you can run that will tell you if the switches are working right. If the switches are working then, it either has to be the motor or wiring.

    All 993's (normally aspirated and turbo) have two oil filters. One for the engine and one for the oil tank. The one on the engine is obvious but the oil tank filter is behind the wheel well liner near the tank. Lot's of oil for lubricating and cooling on the air cooled cars. My 1976 911S (2.7 liter) took 12 quarts.
  17. Loren
    There was a note on the parts list (to dealers) specifically to not put 3.4 liter mufflers on a 3.6 liter engine. I assumed they had a good reason for it (internal differences?).
  18. Loren
    Try 4542 or 4540
  19. Loren
    If you have misfires and no codes then the CEL bulb is likely burnt out (or has been removed). If you have had any misfires then there would be at least pending codes.
  20. Loren
    You do realize your car has two oil filters - right?
  21. Loren
    :welcome: Any fault codes? If the coil packs were cracked in October - then they still are and should be replaced.
  22. Loren
    All of the 996 hardtops are the same. Boxster hardtops are different. If you car has never had a hardtop then you will need the kit to install it.
  23. Loren
    Folks you need to look at Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost). The last Owners Manual I bought was $18.
  24. Loren
    Is the wing all the way down or is one of the hydraulic lifters holding it up. (I am moving this to the 996 section since this is not a turbo).
  25. Loren
    Not much further than shown - but if your hinges are plastic instead of metal now would be a good time to replace them. The plastic ones all break (sooner or later).
