Removing A Porsche 911 Engine And Transmission
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- It is a simple job to drop an engine and transmission on an air-cooled Porsche. We start with Oil, Electric, Fuel, Transmission, Driveshafts, and lastly, the rear engine mounts.
A lift makes this 10 times more manageable, but you can jack up the car and get it on stands. Be safe, take your time, and double-check before dropping that engine. Don't forget those ground straps!
We have recorded the return trip and will do an engine install video.
Thanks for watching.
I think I've watched every single one of your aircooled 911 videos, you have so much knowledge that is hidden in your vidoes while you explain things. I really appreciate that kind of insider info!
Your welcome and I am glad that you are enjoying the videos.

This video really clearly shows the steps you need to go through. That's a pretty awesome 911 that you're working on with the twin plug ignition and other custom parts. I bet it sounds fantastic.
Hey JF, you can see that engine running on a couple of other videos,

Always nice to see a pro at work. A few tips learned here will be applied to future engine outs.
Thanks Charles. We have some tricks going back in too!
Nice one. The rubber caps are a nice touch.
There is always some oil, but the caps make a big difference. Thanks for watching
Always great, informative videos. You are a pleasure to watch and always learn a lot👍
Thanks Roger

Enjoy your videos, thanks for the great details. I’m about to do the same on my 78SC that’s been in storage for about 5 years.
Nice!
Kurt
Great video and thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!

Great video! Is that tool you attach to your floor jack homemade or can that be purchased?
It is a factory Porsche Tool, not sure if they are still available. I also have another one that I built myself.
Kurt
Thanks Kurt. Always learning tips from you. Those rubber oil plugs are handy. do you get them in a set?...cheers.
No I have to buy them according to the size I need.
Kurt
@@klassikatswhen reinstalling the chain tensioners do you pump them up in oil by hand or can you just install them?
If you are talking about the pressure fed tensioners then no. If you are talk about the non pressure fed tensioners then you need to call us.

Nice job on the engine and tranny removal. What is that exhaust wrapped with ? I have not seen that before.
The exhaust is wrapped with an insulating wrap. This serves two purposes, the fist one that it will reduce the heat coming off the headers. This helps keep engine bay temperatures lower and also helps prevent excessive heat being transferred into the engine oil lines that are running close to the pipes. The other thing it does is help with engine performance. If you can keep the heat in the headers it will keep the exhaust gas speed up.
Thanks for watching

Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for sharing this video on RUclips.
I was curious as to how long it would be to take out a 911 engine. I have a 1976 911S that I just bought. And the shop where I left it for new tires said it has a massive oil leak from a split seam in the oil cooler.
They are quoting 13 hours of labor. It's hard for me to wrap my head around that amount of repair hours, especially when other folks have told me it is possible to do such a repair with the engine in place.
I understand taking the engine out might be easier, but 13 hours?!!
Thanks again for the video. I am trying to educate myself.
So the book time on that engine for removing and replacing the engine is 6.5 hours I would add another 2 hours to do the oil cooler. However, the shop it is at may charge different rates depending the cars condition, and local cost of doing business. If it does not sound like a fair price to you I would recommend talking to another shop in your area and maybe towing the car to a better repairer.
Kurt
Outstanding!
Glad you like it!
Nice working ❤
Thanks ✌️
Hi I was asking where you got engine removal fixture you indicated Porsche part ,well I can not find it would you have part number, thanks for all you for porsche enthusiast Rick
Rick,
Tool numbers that you need are P-9111 and P-911/1, These are going to be tough to find as none of the after market tool vendors are carrying these items anymore.
Kurt
Hey bud first thanks for the video I was wondering what year 911 is this? I am going to drop a engine on a 1987 in the morning would this be the video for that year? Thanks again bud
This one is a modified 1977. Your 1987 will be different. The clutch job shows a later model, 1985 which will be closer to yours.

Thanks for watching, S
thanks for the video, the color of the car is dis peru red!! ??🤔
No idea what color this one is. The owner had the car painted at a local shop and who knows what formula they chose.

@@klassikats 👍
What's the go with that rear swaybar?
Not sure what you mean
Kurt
@@klassikats is it an adjustable type? Looked a bit different to the standard arrangement.
no just a stock rear bar and drop link assembly.
Kurt
Hi where car I get floor jack engine removal gig tool thanks Rick
Porsche is the only source right now.
Kurt
where can i buy that jack
The jack is just a regular 2 ton shop floor jack. The adaptor to fit the engine is a Genuine Porsche tool and you can still buy them from Porsche, just be prepared to pay a premium for it.
Kurt
I can't find that floor jack adapter anywhere.
Any chance you'd be willing to sell me one or make me one?
I have an '82 911 SC (3.0) that has some broken head studs so the engine is coming out.
Will check my suppliers and will get back to you
@@klassikats thank you
Trevor,
There are two parts to the engine jack tool, the plate and the knuckle. The plate shows that it is available in Germany, however the knuckle shows it is on back order. Send me an email at contact@klassikats.com and I can give you some pricing on those pieces
Thanks
Kurt
THIS IS WHY I TELL ALL MY CLIENTS TO STAY AWAY FROM PORSCHE. EVERYTHING THEY DESIGN IS AWFUL.. I NEVER SEE A HAPPY MECHANIC. THEY QUIT AFTER A FEW YEARS.
Okay, I have 34 years of working on these cars and I would have to say that I'm not unhappy about it. But what ever works for you I guess.
