Hey, so I'm from Wisconsin, and I'm gonna be moving to Augusta Georgia with some buddies for the first part of 2024. And right now, I'm prepping for the trip, and i really want to bring my 944. My car is very rough condition, but I'm hoping I can drive it, but if not, tow it with the main vehicle for plan b if it breaks down. I just wanted to hear what you recommend for me to do a pre trip check / maintenance? Car has been sitting for a few years by the sounds of it.
You just bought the car? Congrats. Not surprised to hear the condition. Some of these cars sat for a long time, typically because they bought the car cheap and drove it until it needed maintenance. Start with the basics does the car run, drive and stop? Absolutely would check the fuel lines. Absolutely would check the timing belt. Check tires. It’s probably going to leak a lot if it sat for a long time and you start driving it. I do not think it’s a difficult car to work on, I enjoyed restoring mine.
Ok, thanks, yeah, I bought the car about a month ago. I ran new rubber fuel lines for now and I'm going to replace rear brake lines. If I do end up taking the car, I'll probably get new tires. I'm going to install new fuel injectors, fuel regulator, and in line fuel guage, short shifter, and other shifter parts from only944. Car came with spare belts, but the ones that are on it look good. And it has a new battery.

Very clear and informative, thank you! I have an '86 NA and will be making this deletion today.

@@Viper-zx1eithe only944 shifter kit is a good kit that’s what I had.
