    I had a 1976 911 S (until 2000). Look for the last (stronger CIS airbox) - it should be 911.110.904.00. But still get a pop off valve. Look for corrosion around the battery chassis contact area in the front trunk. Getting this fixed (re-welded) can be pricey. Check to see if the car was a California car. Those cars had a different cat and ran hotter. These cars tended to cook the valve covers so consider replacing them with the Turbo ones (which I think is all they sell now). If the car has been lowered then see if they adjusted the steering rack for the lowering (or there will be binding). Otherwise I think you have covered the big things. sounds good. he has a refurbished Bosch K-Jetronic Continuous Injection System tuned to a new moyer tank (no pop off valve) new head bolts an 11 blade fan a rebuilt battery chassis will have to figure out if it was orginally a calif car - probably not as it is here in FL not lowered appreciate the input wonder what it should go for Check Bruce Anderson's valuation articles in Excellence Magazine for pricing.

    I would say 2 years at best - if kept sealed and dry.

    For Tiptronic cluster: 996.641.981.24.xxx where xxx is the interior color code. For 6 speed: 996.641.981.23.xxx where xxx is the interior color code.

    thx! OK, so the issue is apparently the cluster. it is apparently an 1800 fix which is really crazy to simply fix the cruise control. i tend to do a lot of longer drives so i would like to have it. Any suggestions other than swallow hard? Thx! Might I ask how they confirmed the problem is in the cluster?

    Might be easier to run it up the console tunnel. You would likely have to use fish tape and a lot of patience to get it through the door sill area.

    :welcome: Glad folks here could help out.

    :welcome: P0174 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Above Limit Possible fault cause - Incorrect signal from MAF sensor - Intake air system leaking - Fuel pressure too low - Volume supply of fuel pump too low - Fuel injectors fouled - PCV valve leaks - Cap of oil filler neck not closed correctly or seal is damaged No DME failure. Start by checking the oil cap and the o-ring under it for a good seal. Also, check the filler hose for cracks. Check for any other possible air leaks. If that looks good put the Durametric Software, a PST2 or PIWIS tester on the car and look at the MAF air flow - both at idle and at 2500 RPM. That will tell you if the MAF is working properly.

    Take a look at Fabspeed site (http://www.fabspeed.com/) I have a 3.6 2002 Cab that I got their exhaust (cats & mufflers) as well as airbox mods and chip tuning. They did a dyno test before and after and you can clearly see (and feel) the difference in the lower RPM's Click Porsche, go to 996&GT3, scroll down to 996 Performance Package with ECU Upgrade, and scroll down and click PRODUCT DYNO: 2002 996 Performance Package with ECU Upgrade. Biggest gain was in 2000-3000 RPM range, easily 50 hp at that RPM. So it's clearly an issue that can be taken care of Sorry, that is total BS. You can not get 50 HP out of a normally aspirated 996 - even with a chip, air intake and new exhaust.

    Could be a short in the steering wheel or one or more bad horns. Unplug the horns then press the steering wheel horn and see if it blows.

    Easiest thing to do is remove the oil filter and pour the oil out of it - about 1/2 liter.
