For high quality used 968 and 944 parts go to inline4.nl/ or email him directly on info@inline4.nl. He ships worldwide.
Jon, looking good! My two cents would be to save the seats until later, get the dash, etc. in first so that you don't have to do so much gymnastics by laying upside down with the seats in the way.
Thanks Jeff, I think you are right about the seats. Good advice!
I’m really enjoying this project and the positive comments from other viewers about the work and suggestions. Not every channel has team approach. Needs more subscribers as this is excellent. Do you think that you will keep the car ?
Thank you for the kind words Craig! I am very happy with all the advice I receive as it makes me think and challenge my ideas.
I plan to keep it for a while, at some point I will have to create room, so one or two of my cars will need to go. It will be like choosing between my children! Just the thought of letting one of my transaxles go fills me with anxiety 😅
Such a good reference for all the things that I forgot to document when I dissembled! (the ground for the ABS module for one)
Haha, happy to be of service James!
Very thorough, great work 😊
Thank you Chris!
Hi, excellent work as ever. I was thinking you might want to pull the heater matrix out of the heater box in case it is full of silt and pressure test it as prone to leaks. Very easy at this point as the dashboard is out but other wise you have to slide it out through the glovebox which, having done myself, is a very unpleasant process! I would leave the seats until the last moment. Just my 2p!
Thanks for the advice Jake, makes sense about the seats. I'm gonna give the heater core removal some thought...I am worried that opening the HVAC is going to become another rabbit hole.
@@GarageBiljon There is a pretty good article on clarks garage on how to remove the heater matrix - it isn't difficult but you will need 2 x new o-rings. Getting to all the screws with the dash in is a bit of a nightmare
Excellent @@jakerade1, I'm going to take a look, it does make sense to tackle this now. To be continued :)
I am enjoying your videos alot as I have 1992 968. However I would like if you may slow down the video on some of the electrical parts like relays and such so I could see the detail of cleaning them. Thank you
Thank you Ginger, let me see what I can do about that. There really isn't all that much to it though; I just use contact cleaner and a tooth brush on all the pins.
@@GarageBiljon oh ok so you pull the relays or plugs clean brush and replace them back were they were unplugged from. How would you know if they are bad? Thank you for reply I am enjoying your videos
Pretty much @@gingersagau9336, i am replacing all relays that were under water out of precaution. They are not necessarily bad, but I bought a bunch of used ones and know they are good. How you know relay is bad is by testing it, each relay has an electrical diagram on it's side, so you can measure resistance and check for voltage on the pins. Let me see if I can work this into an episode somewhere.
Impressive!❤
Thank you Jeffrey, it is an obsession 😅
@@GarageBiljon ❤️
Wijzen alle nietjes wel met het puntje richting ventiel, Johann?😀
Haha Jeroen 🙈 Ik was zelf ook erg verbaasd over de slordigheid van de originele nietwerk , maar ook wel leuk dat dit soort handgemaakte details terug te vinden zijn in Porsches uit de pre 996 era. Dat zal je nooit meer tegenkomen op een moderne Porsche.
