7:37pm 6-8-2003, 951 is born
I feel like I just had a baby... 951 has come alive and sounds great! Once I got the mixture good enough to get out of the car, I cycled the motor from idle to 2500 for 15 minutes while standing in a cloud of smoke as it burned off all the oils.
I have a nasty oil leak.. I think from one of the balance shaft seals, but could care less. I can fix that in no time at all. I am going out to pull the covers when it cools down to see what's up.
Many thanks to Andy for letting me use his DME and KLR. At the same time I also bypassed the alarm with pins 1 and 4. I will swap in my DME later and see what happens.
Tip for the future (and I will post this soon, and thank you Bader$), 87 and earlier cars, for the alarm bypass, it is 1 and 4 only. Later cars, jump 7 and 8.
Thanks again to everyone on the list, you are a major reason this baby is here.

Congrats Perry. Whenever I have to work on a car, rather it be an oil pan gasket on the Jag or a timing belt on the 944, thinking of the huge rebuild that you underwent inspires me and gives me the confidence that I need to get the job done. I am glad to hear that the 951 is gonna be a driver and not a trailer queen.
