Thanks Mark - Tom.
Those pins look really good, no corrosion that I can see.

It was a GREAT 928 day! I kind of helped Jim W. but he did most of the work:

EURO85 - confirmed that it was in fact the fuel pump relay causing it not to start or run. YEA! Moved the reverse light relay over to the Fuel Pump relay location and have ordered a new relay so I will have back up lights again.

We took the carpet covered drivers side cover off the center console so I could glue all the carpet back in to place. Looks MUCH BETTER NOW! To me anyway.

S4 - We installed the Garage 9 arm rest support repair I bought from Nicole at Hooked On Cars and now it is AWESOME! It was broken quite badly at the back. Now it is SOLID! LOVE IT!!! We also changed out the hood AND hatch struts on that car. Got a bunch of them when they were on sale at 928 International!

'94 GTS - changed out the hatch struts! YEA!

Like I said, it has been a GREAT 928 day and EURO85 drove like a champ over to lunch at my mom and dad's house. In fact neither of them have seen the car outside the garage and my mom didn't even actually register that it was a different or "new" car when she saw it the other day, so today was kind of the EURO85 coming out party to the parents! LOL! My mom actually REALLY LIKED the car. Shocking! She pretty much hates cars in general (and doctors too for some reason...) but this one she likes. I think because it so bright and so pretty!

Thanks Jim W for all your help today! Glad everything went smoothly for us! You are THE MAN!

Repaired the console brackets with a Jager/Garage 9 kit from Nicole using epoxy and screws:

Pulled slave and master clutch cylinders to address my clutch slip/damp master issue. While doing so I was staring at my solid motor mounts for some time, so the volvo ones I ordered from roger 6 months ago became a good project. Cross member is out.

Found I lost the stock engine support brackets somewhere. Duh.

Put in an order for some used ones at 928intl!

Had the tires high speed balanced. 100+ MPH never felt so unfelt
