1 fin broken isn't so bad, check out this one...

You might want to just buy a new one (comes with new fan bearing, which is about 1/2 the cost of the fan+bearing anyways)....but its an "ouch" sized price.... roughly $400. If you go used, carefully inspect it before buying, and if the fin tips are delaminating pass on it.

Kika, fan belt! Time for new set? John

Kika

Is that the same as the 2 alternator belts(inner and outer) and AC belt?

That is what I ordered. Let me know if I need another belt.

I am officially benching the 993 until I can get those belts done

Kika, you now have the belts! Just need to have them installed soon. John

Mark Harris

Yes, Kika-It was the belt closest to the fan itself which I think is the alternator belt. The other belt at the fan is still intact and when the engine is running the fan turns.

Keith-Holy smokes. Thanks for the link. Actually made me feel better as mine wasn't near as bad. The shroud casting got scratched up inside by the one flying fin. (<-not the rennlister )

I have the fin. It landed and stayed on the bottom of the shroud. My shroud casting is fine. I think a new shroud casting is like $700. Ouch.

The flying fin or belt took out the plastic shroud cover on top. Thats only $60.

Moral of the story-change your belts as a maintenance item. I should have known better. I'm sure mine are original (they are Porsche belts) and despite only 32K miles the belts are 16 years old was a poor oversight on my part.

Mark,
Looks like you lost 1.5 blades. Check your deck lid for any dings caused by the airborne magnesium...

Ouch!

You'll have her back on the road in no time!

Mark Harris

Yep, after seeing Keith's post I'm all paranoid about my decklid. Headed back out to the storage unit........

Mark Harris

Badda Bing. Back on the road. Big shout out to Karl the owner of RennsportKC for working me in on moments notice. Sunset rocked also with all the parts in stock.

Karl is a great guy! He did my PPI when I bought my 964. He was very helpful during the whole process. Doesn't surprise me that he fit you in right away. Class act!

"If you go used, carefully inspect it before buying, and if the fin tips are delaminating pass on it"

Not familiar with the fan design/construction. I assume it's cast. What would delaminate at the fan tip?

thanks

Mark Harris

+993. When I bought this 2S in New Jersey Karl and I flew out together and he did the PPI in a Rennlisters garage on a Friday night. He put all his necessary tools in a checked suitcase and off we went.
