Make sure the CEL works and goes out after starting. Wouldn't be the first time that bulb was found to be missing.

congrats Ryno...nice looking car and sounds like a great deal.

what leakdown numbers are considered good?

thanks

ryano

the way I understood it... 8-12% would be an tight engine, with a bit higher mileage 15-20% would be realistic. I had franz blam here in Atlanta run the test and the PPI and he said for this car/age/mileage this was very good.

Looks like a beauty - welcome to the club - the ski rack is behind the second door on the left.

(makes the slope easier to slide down).

Congrats.

Sounds high too me. My cars leak downs were in the 1 - 4% range except for 1 cylinder that was 6% although I suspect that there could be variations in readings depending on how the test is done. If the car runs well and oil consumption is low then I suppose it really doesn't matter. I know the mechanic who did mine said the leak down numbers might get better if it was driven hard and more often as the car had sat a lot.

Thanks for choosing FBR to do your PPI. Enjoy your new-to-you Porsche!
