A Do-it-yourself approach to Mercedes R107 and Porsche 993. Lighting is bad, bad editing and mistakes are made but if I can save just one person from breaking a plastic clip it will all be worth it.
I also slay at Fortnite....well slay/camp whats the difference ?

Maybe someone will get something out of it. The grinding of the tool is the best takeaway

Revs were hanging after I engaged the clutch. Acceleration/Revs from 4K to 6.5K was not linear. Felt like I could feel something pulling at the car. Like someone hanging onto your shirt while you ran.

Porsche 993 Low Voltage Oil Cooler and A/C Fan Resistor Replacement
Просмотров 3428 месяцев назад
A/C and il cooler fans have a resistor that lowers the voltage and allows low speed operation. These fail and only allow high speed operation putting stress on the oil and AC units as they heat up
Porsche 993 Front bumper removal and repair for front grille replacement and gasket repair
Просмотров 4528 месяцев назад
Front bumper had to come off for missing front grille and gasket realignment. Looked like maybe front end had bottomed out and broke a few plastic clips which I think caused front grille to be left off by previous owners. Once again Spielberg would be proud......

Porsche 993 tachometer, odometer and clock removal. Broken Tach case
With the DME relay out, I usually crank until I see 2 bar. THEN I reinstall it and fully start the engine.
Yes, I could of and should of cranked it a bit longer. Car started up fine but will definitely do that next time. Thanks
If you run the engine, with the oil cap filler OFF, you'll find that the oil backs up the filler tube (and will cause a mess if it overflows).
FWIW, I coat all rubber o-rings with MolyKote.
Well done. I've a 1996 993 C2 iris blue metallic, 67,000 miles, 6-speed manny tranny, varioram, LSD. Multi-show full-concours winner. Runs like a Swiss watch. No CEL, no oil leaks. I do my own maintenance. I'm never selling it. Oil changes (esp. that smaller engine oil filter is a wiggle-job if you don't want to remove/loosen any heat-exchanger hardware.)
Great help! Doing this on my 964 soon
@gdoyle05 thanks mate, it's a little fiddly but not hard. Only advise would be undo and take off what you need to make it easy. The longer road is actually the shortest.
Waste of time and money. Why not to use the opportunity to upgrade to 165mm speakers? A basic $100 Audio System MX165EVO component system will sound LIGHT YEARS better.
For sure, i get your point. I'll upgrade one day. Bit of fun and cost like $20 bucks, learnt a bit and kept them looking original.
Why not just replace the speaker? I have the same colour interior. Thanks for posting
@co2588 no reason, especially if you can find an oem look. Nice to repair myself, learn about the car and cost about $20 from memory, excluding time.
Thanks for the vid, but why are you whispering?
LOL. Kids, ......WIFE!!!!!!............, late at night. I hope the Vids help a little. I'm not very professional but I'm not trying to build a channel, just hopefully help the odd person.
Can you tell me what that heater hose is that's detached? Mine is just hanging there behind the glove box (left hand drive)
Which hose?. Send a picture or help me identify what you mean....
Most of the 993 parts will last forever, but the speaker grills are ridiculously fragile. I’ve cracked both of the ones on the rear shelf. I applaud your patience with the grills. I gave up with mine after 10 minutes and I’m not in a hurry to try again.
Thanks. I think if and when I do it again , unclipping two or three and holiday open with trim tools and sliding it across the face of the speaker should work and not take nearly as long.
My release handle split in half. How do I remove it?
Don't quite understand, split in half ?
