What's up guys,
Typical 90's car guy here, just scored a "please save me project". A 1992 968 black on black, 118 miles that has been sitting for 10 years!
As the local "Porsche guy" (I own a 1977 924) a friend of mine sent me some photos of his newly acquired 1992 968 "project" about a year ago. This thing had alot of potential and I was here to help... Fast forward to a few weeks ago I received a text. "I have to get this car out of my yard" So we made a deal and I was there the next morning to pick it up. As the price was low, I simply loaded it up and talked about the little effort he put in to get the car running. The details I had at that time, was beautiful black on black 9.5/10 (honestly absolutely perfect), new battery, and an untouched engine bay.
After getting it home and cleaning it up a little It was discovered that the Fuel had been sitting just as long as the car. The strainer filter had come detached so I order the repair kit, new fuel pump, fuel lines and sending unit. After cleaning up the tank and installing the new parts she fired right up!
Time for a tune up and some diagnosing of other issues. Hints the Forum add! Glad to be apart of the group and hopefully I can find some help and help others where I can.
I have a YouTube page for my Go Kart racing as well as a few videos of my 1977 924 German spec race car. I will be uploading my process so feel free to follow along.
