So best to check the fit on your 928 before committing.
I think most folks like the 8" rims for the pronounced lip
compared to the stock 928 phonedial.

I believe it had a wing. Only got a quick look going through the round about.
|
Starter came in 2 days. ?Installed today and I am good to go.
The stupid thing is that I only have to pull it up my driveway and put it in storage.
Of course it couldnt have died next spring when I take the car out of storage
|
Wing or no wing? Porken has a black-on-black with a wing delete.?
I was in Woodland WA, near I-5 saw a Black 928s4, was that possibly anyone on the list?
Thanks

Why would you pick a 57 offset if they are custom built?

That was one of the first things Imdid when acquiring the car. ?And de-oxed the connections.
|
I have found one at Autozone for $150. ?Minus a 20% discount.
I have to get the car moved to storage. ?Then next spring address it if any more issues arise.
The lower harness was replaced a hear and a half ago before moving it out to the west coast.
on the issue of a relay. ?The first thing I checked was the CE panel. ?No relay, but a jumper strap in the #18 socket. This rather surprised me. ?I like the idea of a relay between the solenoid and the ignition switch. ?Was frankly shocked it didnt have one.

I have one on a parts car (1979 euro) if you want it. I¡¯m in portland. I¡¯m in the process of pulling the manual drivetrain pieces and could pull it for you. No idea of condition; you¡¯d want to clean and test, etc ?

Easier isn't?correct. You fix the 40yr old problem, not add a future headache to it with more wires, more connections, and MORE corrosion to have to bugger about in the future. We make fun of cars that show up for sale with easy fixes all the time..just bybass?it, just use some other hot wire...etc. :)

That requires replacing the FOE harness as its usually corroded
wires etc. and usually easier to add the relay to the system that
takes the 12v from the front post straight to the starter rather
than through the ignition .

Use a relay where for what?
Why not just fix the current issue?

bench test the starter before you get a new one.?
The Old Buggers are very sensitive to current flow (and also
have a wire for cold start I think) that makes them prone to
not starting.?
A simple solution if the starter bench tests OK is to add a
relay in the system so the full 12V is applied directly to the
starter.
If that's your issue, search rennlist for the way to wire in
the relay....
