Re: come on people
Sorry man.... Uncle sam has been keeping me busy, as has college. This full time work and school thing is a real damper on everything in my life! 8)
Anywho, I recently ordered the 968 shop manual on CD, and look forward to doing a serious tuneup and service this winter. I also have some electrical gremlins to track down as well. I'll keep everyone posted, but finals are coming up, so that has to take priority. Cheers

Re: come on people

Re: come on people
Same as ledhead for me (well minus the 968 stuff and college) between work and moving into my new/used house I've been too busy to even open the hood.
I think I'll go check the oil now!

Re: come on people
If you are referring to my previous post, the link is another 944 forum on another site that appears to get greater traffic than here. Frankly, I've found this forum pretty dead compares to the flat-6.net one, which appears to have had at least three new people join in the past few weeks.

Re: come on people
Well how about some 944 news from Indy?
I have been keeping my eyes open for my next one and have looked at several lately...Just none yet that say LOVE ME! Interesting though, I test drove a 87 with 198K miles and a 89 with 248k miles and they BOTH ran GREAT! Also just got back from seeing a 85.5 944 Turbo "look" too rough for me though... I shall keep my eyes open...But just wanted to say WOW on the high miles ones that still ran very well!

I've had a shake in the steering wheel from 60 to 70 MPH for about a year now. I've had the tires balanced, the car aligned, done 100's of visual inspections and done the shake the tire deal. I found a top/bottom wobble in the passenger side and upon further investigation, I can see it's coming from the strut shaft. The struts don't seem worn out but I'll replace them anyways as soon as $$$ is available. Cost: ~$160 I'm gonna need a new helmet next year as the snell year stamp is about to run past the 10 year limit. Cost: ~$250 The passenger side window switch only lets them put the window up, I must roll it down. I don't know how long it's been half broken cause I usually ride alone and I'm always driving. Cost: 2 hours + 6 beers There's more stuff if you want to hear it.

Re: come on people
Thanks enough for the moment i think. Mine as the same problem with the struts> Struts work fine but have play in the shaft, mine are the full legs tho, being an "88" And yours being the inserts. Window switch are cheap enough and easy to replace. Related links? aint got a clue!

Re: come on people
Replaced the power steering pump and the two hoses that connected to the power steering reservoir. I have to say that the return line is one of the most interestingly bent lines that I've ever seen before. This was a real challenge to replaced, but the pump feeder hose was easy. I just hope that this will finally stop the power steering leak that's been dripping since I got the car.
