Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?

Stopped the turn signal hosting moving in my 356. Initially I thought the bolts were too long so I shortened them but no. I cleaned out the inside and regreased then put some tape on the column. Hosting now solid. Just need to get the horn working now but can't get the pusher off https://uploads.ta...

Re: How do I remove the centre of the boss?

Re: How do I remove the centre of the boss?

How do I remove the centre of the boss?

The horn isn't working and the Porsche logo is upside down. I've tried pushing in a twisting. I've tried to get a very small screwdriver in to work it out? Any ideas?Image

Good source for 356 charcoal carpet?

I've been thinking about patching the car in my A. I don't want to buy a full set but could only find this source for the carpet (that isn't a set).

Re: Under cover Resto

I think you might want the normal gasket facing the exhaust? As that is the face which might not be true or move? Some uses sealant on there too. I have some spare exhaust gaskets if you need them

Re: Show us your 'garage'

Certainly not an Uber garage but £60 well spent to add matting to my garage/shed https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240519/c8001b72cf399b3c52d1dd987fad0052.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240519/4a924bfbf3b91c1b9a2cd68f58fc9fdf.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240519/01207c19578260d83d3...

Re: Oil temp gauge issue

So a bad/no connection is what causes the temperature to move to the right so I don't think the sensor is connected to the gauge. First check that is just hasn't come disconnected. At the back of the gauge and more likely the engine bay (happened to me). If that doesn't solve the problem. I would co...

Re: ideal port size for a 2.2 with mod solex cams?

I think you should of asked Mike Champion this question the other Sunday:). I think he has some software that will simulate/calculate this for you. As for if it's cost effective for you to ask or for Mike to answer this question is another question entirely
