My wife is/was planning on taking her car to Auto on the Ave car show in Los Gatos today. When I backed her car out of the garage I noticed the smell of gas. Checked the engine and she has a cracked injector. I am looking for one green injector that I can get her to the show today with. If you are in the South Bay area and can help with a loaner it would be appreciated. The show stages at 3:30 . It needs a 2.0 green injector.

Good luck Mike; please post a pic of the cracked injector when you get a chance. I've never heard of one cracking-----

So here is a picture of where the injector was leaking. It is at a seam so not cracked but still leaking.



Kathy did make the car show and there was a good turn out of cars 100+. The show had all types of cars and most were exceptional quality. Kathy was parked next to a 7,500 miles 1989 speedster. Yes, not a typo 7,500 miles. Many newer cars and all the awards went to the 2006 - 2010 model cars with the exception of the Camero pace car and the Ferrari/250GT California. I did meet some 914 guys from the East Bay and we walked as a group to the next lot to check out a 914 that was parked in a lot there. Only 1 asshat with the "thats not a real porsche, see the VW logo on the window" guy there. He was the one wearing a polo shirt from the '80's with the flashy gold Porsche logo. I think it was too hot for his Members Only jacket. I did not take many pictures but here are a few.

a few more. Kathy was happy to have her car out and very Thankful to Jeff Bowlsby for coming through with the injector. Thanks again Jeff.

Nolan thought his momma was cool for having her car with all the other cool cars.
