My /6 conversion is going on 3 years as it seems as many do. I had a local old school reputable shop build the stock 2.7, case was done at Ollies, .... should be a great engine. Finally trying to get her barking, but just won't take hold. While cranking she wants to start, but when I release the starter, she conks out. We have a spark (not real significant), timing is close, carbs appear ok.
Is it possible the valves or maybe rings are not sealing because the engine sat for about 2 years? |

Other 911 owners have had issues with oil filters that are not oem. Beware of knock offs!

Mahle is no longer German made and we are seeing the results now I would like to think the major manufacturers would have QC in place when they move operations to other countries, maybe not. I'm going with this one in the future: https://www.napaonline.com/en/search?text=n...&referer=v2 Still can't believe I got a bad one that would not allow oil to enter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
