Hi Everyone! We are back on our 1986 Porsche 3.2 Carrera! With the engine installed it is time to start hooking things up. We start with the engine bay - plenty to do here :) We are getting closer to the start-up!! Enjoy!
Just rebuilt my '84 3.2 including splitting the cases, connected it up and started straight off. Result! :) Watching you gave me the inspiration. I have never opened an engine in my life before this. Thank you.
It was suggested by some bloke in England I should subscribe to your channel. Of all the videos I have watched of his, this is the best advice he has ever given. Have not missed any since I have subscribed and have gone back and watched the previous ones. Excellent channel.
I did the clutch on my 1985 Turbo Targa.So much fun.This reminds me of happy times.My brother owned a 911T from the 1960's.We practiced on his car first.Love your channel.
Great video!!! Love the terminology......”just a kiss, little bit of Braille”. I have watch so many of your videos, that I catch myself repeating those phrases in my videos. I hope you don’t mind and I will also give you shout out if I do. Can’t wait to hear it run!
Another fantastic video Franny, I along with everyone else cannot wait to hear that engine fire up for the first time since you did all the work bringing it back....
Good job. Re the shroud bolts, I liked that one of the rear (front) bolts was "basically right here-ish." Great descriptive! I know you're happy the job is moving forward quickly at this point. You'll certainly be ready for spring driving.
It seems like it isn't a lot until you actually have to connect them all ;) I think the shop time is over eight hours for install. A bit more involved than the 356... At least there aren't any cooling hoses!
Love this channel! Was hoping you sourced another 8mm bolt for the air tube to the blower at 13:14 in this video. Unfortunately, I am missing both on my '84 911. Its a bit of a Frankenstein car I am trying to sort out. All my best.
Another awesome watch The skills the detail the quality, well enough about Heidi 😂 It’s looking brand new under that hood and every effort worth it Well done 👍
@@HeidiandFranny I was being amusing and know both your names , was wanting to include Heidi in the praise ( referencing the filming editing etc ) teamwork 🙏
Aw, so sweet, but the editing is Franny as well. We had discussed and I offered, but since she is in the middle of the project, it makes more sense for her to edit. I do way more behind the scenes from working with our Patrons, phone calls to shops, parts orders, running errands, household stuff (well, Franny has that too), our cat channel including filming and editing), you get the picture. But thanks. It all works out. As long as you enjoy, that is what matters.
I must confess, seeing all of these clean 'n shiny parts go together is giving me warm fuzzy feelings! Question for the 7:00 min mark: those Oettiker clamps in the top left corner -- did you disassemble those, or are those OE? Did you order new ones from Porsche and were they cad plated? Or did you source new Oettiker clamps and send them off with your cad plating job? Just wondering how deep the fanaticism went here. 😄
Odd .... I'm huge fan of your videos Franny. just an FYI, for some reason I stopped getting notifications about new posts (about a month now). Could be on my end... just curious if anyone else pinged you with same issue
I've just pulled my engine om my 1986. Your video's made it super easy. I'm replacing all my fuel lines like you did and I'll replace my vacuum lines. Including te large one that goes to the brake booster. In this video I clearly see 85 om your hose. Was it still pliable? Mine was brittle.
Great question... The BB hose isn't exactly soft, but it is still pliable. I was thinking about your comment while working on the car and it wouldn't be all that bad to replace. In the tunnel it is a steel tube so there is just the rubber tubes connecting to the tunnel from both ends. I had the BB go out on the Ferrari and it made a bunch of noise. I'm guessing a bad hose wouldn't be subtle ;) A future project? f
Thank you Franny! I felt my tension drop through the whole video. You are the best mental health professional in the world! Oh and your automotive knowledge is exceptional as well!
A LOT less time... Like a quarter? fussing with the cameras and lights is just a thing. Then there is editing that can take more than a week... Still, it is great to have visuals of the work. I actually referred to them quite a bit putting everything back together.
Engines always surprise me how extremely complicated they are. Like a contraption from a Jules Verne novel. One small thing - I wish I knew what the various air vents are doing. I watch your videos start to finish, yet I will never own a Porsche. I prefer boats.
Some of the air is going into the engine to help burn fuel. Some is going through the big fan to be blown over the fins on the cylinders to cool the engine. And some is going through steel caverns built around the exhaust pipes to make hot air for the passenger compartment in the winter. This series of videos really drives home that they did not just remove an engine. They dropped an engine, a fuel injection system, an air intake system, an engine cooling system, and a heater system! Oh, and the entire exhaust system! Now, the oil filtration and sump and cooling system is a whoooole 'nother story and is mostly off-engine. Some of it's in the engine bay and some is up in the front end of the car! 😄
Hi Everyone!

Enjoy!
Yet another technical term “Honkin big washer”. Very interesting.
Franny has a dictionary of technical terms.
I also liked the Big Plug, or as it's probably listed the parts catalog, “großer Stecker”...
I can be very technical sometimes... ;)
Who could possibly give this wholesome content a thumbs down?!!
Awesome job. Didn't expect anything less than perfect from you tbh. Liked the Ratarossa sweatshirt. 👍
...and it is really warm too :) Have you seen Scott's latest project? Should be something!
@@HeidiandFranny Yes indeed looking forward to it 👍.
Just rebuilt my '84 3.2 including splitting the cases, connected it up and started straight off. Result! :) Watching you gave me the inspiration. I have never opened an engine in my life before this. Thank you.
Wow! Congrats! That is a great accomplishment :) I am editing up the next few videos and I know how you feel :)
Amazing attention to detail, Zuffenhausen engineers will likely use your video for in-house training.
Lol! I wish I had something like this when I started :)
Agree, excellent mechanical work and video!
Very fun to watch, Franny & Heidi. It's like putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
You probably already know this , but I'm going to say it anyway,,,,,, you are an amazingly talented lady !!!!!!!! 🙏 Mick from uk
Lol! Thanks!
Love the way you work, Frannie. That engine bay is looking beautiful. Almost ready to run!
Closer than you think ;)
Love your patience and no cussing lol. Quite the opposite for me in my workspace!
Brilliant episode Franny I love the Porsche and can’t wait to hear it roar into life again :)
Thanks!

Thanks so much Dale! Tell that bloke I said thanks too :)
You are an amazing teacher
Thanks!
Watching this video series is more satisfying than watching Bob Ross paint a picture!
:) Thanks!
So close to start up. Maybe that can be our collective Christmas present from you? Keep up the great work. 😊
I did the clutch on my 1985 Turbo Targa.So much fun.This reminds me of happy times.My brother owned a 911T from the 1960's.We practiced on his car first.Love your channel.
Thanks! That does sound like fun! I would love to work in a turbo!
That was quite satisfying to watch
Yea!!
this is my new favorite youtube channel
Thanks so much!!
Always interesting!!!!! Also, loving the grey hair grow out Franny!
I call that my racing stripe ;) Not sure why it runs in a line like that. I kinda like it though :)
Great video!!! Love the terminology......”just a kiss, little bit of Braille”. I have watch so many of your videos, that I catch myself repeating those phrases in my videos. I hope you don’t mind and I will also give you shout out if I do. Can’t wait to hear it run!

Thanks! Not that far off :)
Such a underrated channel. Love your videos!!
Thanks so much!! Maybe someday ;)

I know you're happy the job is moving forward quickly at this point. You'll certainly be ready for spring driving.
Thanks! It is moving right along. The only slow poke is the carpet... It is end of Jan at this point. I'm glad Moo is still sportin' snow tires!
Always fun to watch things coming back together. Looks like new! Good luck the rest of the way.
Thanks so much! It's getting there.
Heidi and Franny's Garage as long as you don't have an uh oh box. You know, for leftover parts!
The engine bay looks great. So many connectors, hoses and what not. Great job as usual, Franny :)
It seems like it isn't a lot until you actually have to connect them all ;) I think the shop time is over eight hours for install. A bit more involved than the 356... At least there aren't any cooling hoses!
I’m loving your attention to detail 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Oh thank you!
Getting closer to the vroom vroom! Can't WAIT!!!!!
but until then............antici..................pation
Closer than you may think :)
I know I say this all the time but this is another amazing video. Great job once again!
Thanks again!
Love you! thanks for all your efforts you share.
Great job, love your videos 👍🏻🎅🎄
Thanks so much! Happy Holidays!
Very solid work, with good explanations all through the video! 👍🤗🤠Super job😎
Thank you! 👍
Great work Franny, super clear and great hints. Love your work and looking forwards to the next instalment. Thank you
You bet! Thanks so much!

Great ! Waiting for the following vids.👍
Coming soon :)
Fantastic!!
Thanks!
Another awesome watch
The skills the detail the quality, well enough about Heidi 😂
It’s looking brand new under that hood and every effort worth it
Well done 👍
Lol, Its Franny anyhow. I wish I had her skill. Heidi

Always watch every second 🏴🌟🎄👌
I have a question! What's your history with working on cars? From the quality of work, I'd think you grew up in a shop!
Always enjoy the uploads 👏👌
My history is just having cars that were close to the end of their life ;) I always wonder what these cars were like when they were brand new...
@@HeidiandFranny Makes sense, you either drive or walk in that situation!
I must confess, seeing all of these clean 'n shiny parts go together is giving me warm fuzzy feelings!

You used the term, "occluded". Nice.
Thanks this series has been really helpful I am currently on a hunt for a G50 and this information is golden
Glad it was helpful! I kinda wish I'd had it when I got our car too ;)
Odd .... I'm huge fan of your videos Franny. just an FYI, for some reason I stopped getting notifications about new posts (about a month now). Could be on my end... just curious if anyone else pinged you with same issue
another great video, thank you so much.
Yea! Thanks!
Can you do a video on how to buy a Porsche 356c what to look for stuff like that would be great.

Hi John, I hope all is well :) Thanks so much for your kind words. Very sweet :)
Wish I lived next door.
Well, I do have some pretty cool neighbors ;)
Any idea how long it would have taken you to do the job (excluding waiting for parts) if you hadn't been filming the whole thing?
A LOT less time... Like a quarter? fussing with the cameras and lights is just a thing. Then there is editing that can take more than a week... Still, it is great to have visuals of the work. I actually referred to them quite a bit putting everything back together.
