update on Silver 86.5 5 speed!!!!
Well its been quite a journey like all things 928 are.....finally got her running, well.................then BOOM...rear main seal sprung a serious leak right before 1st test drive............
So far a full intake refresh, all vac lines under intake, all intake boots, new spark plugs, new Doc Brown fuel lines, new radiator (formerly from Mark Andersons racer) new TPS extension wire, new crank position sensor(they were crazy crunchy amazing it ran at all) all new seals on fuel injectors, oil & coolant change, drivers door handled fixed (PITA), a few new relays (53)....then rear main let go....well at least its not an automatic
Pending:
1: Rear main seal
2: HVAC diagnosis-R134 refit?
3: whatever test drive reveals?
Jeff is the new owner (Bureau13 on here)...and anxious to get his new ride...I could use the garage space to appease my "boss"
does anyone have a rear main seal tool I could borrow?

My only motive is that Brian's boss get her garage space back. Honest! :-P

Update.....turns out it wasn't the rear main seal!!! It was a loose rear cam seal!! All fixed and test drove today!!!! Went pretty well....darn pass window switch stopped working....but car runs pretty well!! Got it up to 100mph super easy...tracks nice and straight...goes through the gears real easy....a fun day!
