Oh what fun, took the 968 out for its 2012 maiden voyage. Ran perfect but did have a no start after initial startup and shutdown. Also check engine light comes on periodically. I am not too worried about it. It probably just needs some miles put on to clean out the older gas and gets things cirulated. I might also try cleaning the maf. It does run with very good power.

sydneyman

whats there to get? hes enjoying his car and made a post about it. if you can't do that here, than where?

to the OP, you have a clone of my car when i purchased it! Maybe yours is in a little better condition than mine was...

Have fun out there!

Did the same thing yesterday. Valvetrain made some noise for the first few minutes and she was a bit creaky initially. One of my only complaints about living somewhere that doesn't have year-round driving conditions is reviving the car every spring.

I also took mine out and got her washed and picked the daughter up from school where some silly 9-10 year old boys thought it was a lambo and she said "your wrong it's a Porsche"..lol Glad to have the car out again...

odurandina

well yes,

of course i'm stoked he got to wring the car out....

but not before ribbing him a bit for being slightly less fortunate than some of us who got to drive our 968s all winter...


"huh ? what ? you had your car in storage ? LOL.




LOL; my car after sitting more than 30 minutes.

Raj will probably tell me to get a valve job, to which i will respond, "no worries. as long as the flappin' thing hasn't seized."

sydneyman

gotcha

OD, your expectations are very different from everyone else. You are waiting for your engine to croak so you swap it to a chevy. Just about everyone here wants our engine to run as good as new.
Regards.

Dang it, I have not been in a fight with Oduradina forever and now you ruined my chance.

sydneyman

First 968 drive of 2013. It is always a blast to drive the 968 after another long layoff. Clean up comes tommorrow and TB/WP this summer.

odurandina

congrats !

if you get a minute, there's always room for one more at the bar....

OK rub it in then. My fingers froze while washing the 968 today. Damn I hate Nebraska.

But the real question is... which Porsche are you taking to Parade?
