mix it in with 93 to make sure its 93. Theres quite a few stations around here now that have 91 and 92 (sometimes at the same pump). Used to mix toluene and a bit of mmo and techron. With 20 gals it should last me 40 fillups or so. I just gotta make sure idont spill the mixture on my paint lol.

My TT officially left my garage and driveway today...

Bittersweet for sure (I’ll be back one day) but I’m excited for the replacement and my next phase of Porsche ownership.

It’s been great spending time here with you all




I’ll post pics of the new car once I seal the deal

I agree Paul and since there’s still a 996 Turbo S in the family I’ll be hanging around still to read all the latest gossip

2fnfast: I thought for sure that the handle just came out for harnesses. I do like those seats but was thinking they are more for performance driving than long range comfort, although the slide forward bottom part looks comfy, side bolsters not so much for long drive (depending on your frame). Carry on...

They are in fact quite comfy on extended trips - mind you, it was some years ago I had them on an extended trip, and I was thinner...

As you can see, no way to get a harness through there...

Good eye!

I am finding that every so often, I get a little sketchy, especially in the morning, so as coffee is a non starter, the occasional Red Bull makes the world go around...

When I was on patrol, we would just take caffeine pills. Easy to keep around, never worried about spilling, no calories. Wandering around at 1AM never felt so good.
