Your welcome, and congratulations on your new car Kurt

Thanks 👍 Kurt

Thanks, yes hard to edit.

These cars are not made for drag racing, Gears are too tall, power band too high. Where these cars excel is high speed long straight aways or autobahn type roads. Kurt

Horses for courses, every one has different tastes. Kurt

Thanks, Kurt

Glad you enjoyed it! Kurt

Yes have been using those guys for a long time now. Kurt

Thanks Kurt

Thanks, Kurt

Glad to help Kurt

@@klassikats I second that. Great explanations. Even as mine isn't an AC (mine is a 997), love those AC 911s. Thanks for those detailed technical explanations.

Your Welcome. Kurt

Glad you enjoyed it! Kurt

Glad you enjoyed it! Kurt

We have been toying with doing a video on rebuilding the Targa roof, we do have a couple of core roofs on the shelf. Will let you know if we move forward with it. Kurt

Thanks, Kurt

Let's hope not; he's a nice guy!

I've got a black 76 been sitting around for the last 30 years I can't make it fire

@@klassikats thanks for taking the time to do these videos. I just did my engine (bad rod) on my 84 and you were a great help. It had been on the lift for 7 years. Hope to meet you one day.

We would be happy to help. Kurt

This car needed a skilled driver. There were many accidents with the 930 because the drivers treated the car like it was just another car. The turbo engine is tame right up till the turbo spools up and then the horsepower comes on somewhat abruptly. You also have to do most of your breaking before the corner,then apply the gas,set the cars weight on the back wheels and accelerate through the corner. A lot of 930’s were wrecked going backwards because the driver would back off the gas after entering the turn causing the real wheels to loose traction. Todays 911s have much more power but are way more manageable due to all the electronic driver aids Porsche has in the engine management system. Back in the years of the 930 I sold Porsche cars and learned quickly how sensitive the car was. Just the same the 930 is my favorite 911.

Thanks, Kurt

There were so many issues with this car it was hard to point to just one thing. This is a common problem with 50 year old cars that have been through so many different mechanics. With the ignition system there is so much mis-information out there on the web these days that it sends people in the wrong direction. Even the parts availability from the manufacturer, Bosch, is wrong for these systems. So its no wonder that people dont understand how the systems work and how to repair them. Kurt

Thanks Kurt

Thanks

The 054 regulator is for the 3.3L 930 models 1978-85. The 76 3.0L should have an 022 warm up regulator on it. Kurt

The WUR for this car was the 022 and no the 054 was not matched to anything in the 3.0L turbo. The WUR and Fuel distributor had been rebuilt by a rebuilder that just does bad work. The fuel distributor had a pressure leak in it that when the sensor plate was pushed down control pressure would drop. The warm up regulator pressures were no where close to where they should be even for an 054 regulator and the 3.0L systems are not designed for that regulator anyways. The aluminum fuel distributors where used on the 1986 models and on and are also designed to be used with KE-jetronic. This makes them less than ideal to use on anything earlier without modification.

Might be a while, have not been in Melbourne since 1990 while attending Porsche training school. Kurt

The ones I use I have had for a very long time and I bought the set from Mac Tools over 25 years ago. Amazon has several different sets available, the OTC is like the one i use, you can see them here amzn.to/49f693m Kurt

Bosch W3DPO spark plugs and you will only find them at the dealer. once they are gone there will be no correct plug available. Yes i still use copper grease even though Bosch no longer requires it. Kurt

The 77 and on just usings slightly different fittings. I retrofit them into earlier cars all the time. Kurt

Already answered. Kurt

So at the time CIS was used it was the state of the art in fuel injection and was like any other automotive system a transition to what we see today. CIS is actually a very easy to understand and reliable system. It only becomes problematic when people change to parts that were not designed to use or allow contaminates to enter the system. One of the reasons why it was continued for so long in the 930 range is that it is impervious to electrical interference. This meant that Porsche could still use the Bosch CDI ignition system that provides the much greater spark energy needed to ignite the fuel air mixture when under boost. When it comes to the value or the price of these cars that is more what someone will pay than what a seller is asking. The fact that these cars command such a price is a testament to there build quality and the popularity of the car. It also speaks to a supply and demand. Back in the late 1980's when I worked for Porsche it was always their policy to supply less cars than the demand. That way the company can always have a demand for their product. You just have decide how badly you want one of theses cars and if you are willing to pay the going price. If its not for you then that's okay. Kurt

at least you can still get them.. Kurt
