It's not been on the road for 6-7 years except for a week back in early 2016 while doing a clutch replacement on my Boxster. It wasn't running great during that week but it got me to work and back. I suspected the injectors were gunked-up.
I've been saving this car for retirement - restoration project but I'm still a few years out and my energy level coupled with joint pain got me thinking maybe I should just get it running and enjoy driving it while I still can. My basic plan is: Drain fuel system clean injectors replace fuel & vacuum lines New plugs and wires adjust valves new battery The ignition is a crane unit - can't remember the specifics. Tires were near new when I first stopped driving it but probably flat spots now. Any additional suggestions to get it back on the road? |
