Default ?? won't start ??

DME relay going faulty...
Heat soak...
Check valve on fuel rail return...
Fuel pump...
intermittent grounds...

What is your battery voltage?
at rest (engine off)? running?...idle?.... 2000rpm's? (useful info)

Really need more information to help diagnose...

Thx for a super super fast answer !!!!
I am not a mecanic, i had Peter Iversen porsche DK specialist look at it, he switched the battery and then it was fine and he could not find anything on it, with some tests he did, which ones i do not know.
It seems healty when i get it running
the starter just keeps turning around almost like it is not getting enough fuel or something like that
Battery is brand new on it, what voltage i do not know sry, Once going it is running fine at idle

You should post in the 964 turbo forum. There's a few competent folks that can help you there.
Sounds like your wur is going out, which is lucky, because Brian Leask is back in business.

No DME relay on the Turbo. It's uses K-Jet from the Stone Age.
We're working with this owner over on the Turbo board. Cause is most likely a bad flywheel sensor.

I have exactly the same problem also with a 91 964T that I just bought. Got home last night and after an hour or so , went to start the car to put in the garage and starter turned fine but engine would not start, almost like it wasn't getting fuel or spark.....?????? This morning car started like nothing on first try.............Did you find the problem with your car?
