Re: Maddening Running Issue
Sell the fuel tank on ebay (or on here). That will fill a gap for somebody, and people value originality.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Re: Maddening Running Issue
If anyone wants it happy for it to go free to a good home. I’m not sure if it’s original or not. Sure someone with the skills and time could restore it. PM me if any interest.RobFrost wrote:Sell the fuel tank on ebay (or on here). That will fill a gap for somebody, and people value originality.

It's worth that all day long if original. If you give it away cheap/free a trader will only insert themselves between you and an enthusiast, and flip it for a profit.
You can always drop the price if no takers.
Failing that, put it to one side for the DDK swap meet.

Re: Maddening Running Issue
I’ll do that if I can work out its original. See below - three fittings - I presume the one on the right is the screen filter. There are no under tank fittings - did the originals have those?

Re: Maddening Running Issue
The allen key is the drain plug. The others - one is send and the other return I think. Looks original to me. Does it have a thick plasticky underseal type material all over it? Grey if I remember correctly.

Re: Maddening Running Issue
Yes the finish is thick underseal type - rough / pimpled. I’ll get some more images and see if anyone can positively ID. Don’t want to bill it as original if it’s not!
