My 3.2 engine was bought from a wrecked !911 in Pennsylvania. Bought it more than five years ago, it came on a pallet and I started looking for a roller. Heard it sing today. I have it installed in a 72 roller. Sounded really great!
I had a bit of trouble with the top dead center and rpm sensors, but after that it came to life! Very, very sweet. Now to fix a fuel system leak in my silver soldered stainless fuel line. I have been living on faith all this time, which is kind of amazing. |

QUOTE(r_towle @ Sep 19 2015, 08:25 PM)  No video it's not real. Yeah. Thanks. With a small fuel leak which is in the stainless fuel line fitting, we didn't run it long. I now have an excuse to do what I wanted to do all along - start it again. I bought replacement soft lines and a new pair of sensors, along with a spare dme relay. The motor coughed a bit after a long rest, and then settled down real nice. The triple gauge read 4 bar oil pressure, so I may have a gauge sensor mismatch.
