BTW - I don't feel like a dumbass anymore for being intimidated by a clutch job on a 944. I didn't realize half the people on here are mechanical engineers.

I think that owning and repairing a Porsche has to qualify you for some sort of Associates degree in engineering at the very least...

I don't mean to take anything away from the people here who actually know how to engineer things properly, just that these cars are bloody complicated sometimes.

Talking You had to ask.....

I work at a Nuclear Power Plant...I am licensed by the Federal Government for my Plant.

For the last 10 years or so I have been deeply involved with the interim storage of the Spent Nuclear Fuel...I am now the procedure writer as well as the on-site licensing rep as well as the design/implentation guru with the fuel handler title as well.

In my spare time I drive/work on my 928 & 968 and dream of owning either a Speedster...or Roadster...I'll take either!

Well right now I'm working at a oil change place for 6 days a week with the owner/boss. I"m in that I wish I was in college Sam. Anyways I have a job at a Porsche shop lined up once they have room for me there and I'll work my way up. For no school and self learning mostly everything I think I'm doing pretty good in the Porsche field. Anyways changing oil now learning neat stuff and seeing pos cars ahh life is great
