okkkk but what level should the gauge be at ?

My sc stalls when the oil cap is removed, what can cause that? Thanks

Did you guys replace the ims bearing on this and if so did that fix it? Also what’s that knocking noise ?

Great comparison.

In a technical sense, your description is not accurate. The engine can’t take on all the oil in the system. There’s roughly 13 quarts in the system and never will there be 10 quarts in the engine even at max RPM.

Hi mate, thanks to all your wonderful explanations in these vids. Has helped me to have much better underrstanding of the car, really appreciated your efforts in putting these vids up! Currently, i got a 1989 930 turbo 3.3l and required for a refuel of the engine oil, i will go with shell but can you guide me on the specific one please. Thank you!

it was red

How do I turn off the hold function on the panamera

The two THIN white lines are 90C and 120C (degrees Centigrade). This works out to be 194F to 248F (degrees Fahrenheit). (I sold my 87 Carrera back in 2013, so I am strictly going from memory). Oil level should NOT be checked until the engine has warmed up to at least the lower thin white line. Bruce Anderson (remember him?) said that at 248F the engine was running “hot,” and at or above the red line (120C or approximately 302F)it is “too d*** hot.”

My top ,when I open starts fine, nice and slow open, but then slams and drops! When closing , it gets a little stuck, then when it's un stuck with my hand , it continues to close, but I have to slowly down with hand to let the opening latch have time to retract b4 it closes

Bent wiper arm, wrong side of car. Bent camera man, wrong side of bed.

why would you NOT show the guages while explaining this?

Thank you so much! I inherited a 79 Porsche 911 from my dad and fixed up one broken part on it. I've always wondered what those gauges should be around to know how healthy the car is and if it's doing alright. It has been impossible to find any info on that. This video was soooo helpful, so thank you so much!

How the fk do you take the air tubes off the throttle body

Wow

That usually means it was at the body shop in my experience.

Thank you!

Love the level of detail and the continual education that you so willingly provide. Thank you very much!

Awesome and thank you again so appreciate these 964 993 tips/insight. Should we also put some lube inside the cable housing?

Great stuff! 👍

Cool idea with the oring

Being a 993turbo owner (& friend of your old friend Joel Reiser) I love these videos & your encyclopedic knowledge of these cars! Please keep the content coming!!

What a very long winded guy! He can give a woman a run.

The advice this man ia giving should not be understated. I would consider Mr. Callas one of the most experienced in this field. I have been practicing his starting procedure for years now with no issues. Thanks for sharing. I personally refer back to your 959 delivery video for many of these questions. Would love to see more in depth walk throughs like you did with the new 959 owner. Excellent stuff!

Thank you! I treat all my cars like I do myself at the gym. Easy warm up for 5 minutes then increase my activity gradually.

I change the oil on my 992 every 5K with the Mobil 1 40W spec'd for it.... should I go to 3K interval? Also, is it bad if I let the fast idle (warming uo the cats) come down before I drive off? I just don't like how it drives when on fast idle.

Thank you for this video and this topic this is your new subscriber on the West Coast Los Angeles. I’ve seen some of your videos and then I pulled you up and find out that you are right by Johnson’s alignments. That’s where all the Porsche guys go to have their cars worked on well I’m hoping to be your customer and I have a 1978 SC and a 99 996 and watching your videos I feel pretty comfortable that I can take my car to you and not worry about anything and I believe the guy at Pacific tires in Redondo Beach mention you as well. Well thank you for all your videos. Can’t wait for the next one.

On racing bikes the mechanics' warm-up procedure is to start up then, keeping below about one third of the rev-range, running it up to temp but not letting it sit at a constant RPM. This is why you see them constantly blipping the throttle, and, apparently, it's to minimize bore-scoring. What's your opinion of doing the same with car engines?

I always enjoy watching you apply your vast amount of Porsche knowledge to solving any problem!

Thank you Tony!

that looks almost like a stock supra crazy how capable the base road car is.

I don't know what those crazy Germans were smoking the day they actually designed something easy to remove from my 911. Thanks for the video.

Enough to put u off buying a 911 imo all these fkin error codes- to late for me tho I got a 997.2 GTS Cab 3 months ago, only got it cos it is a 2nd car

Does this feature come on stock or do you need the sport chrono pack?

Nobody’s denying the ims failure on pre 2007 engines.. m96s and m97.1 engines all prone to failure.

Not a broken valve spring ?!! 😅 Thanks, Tony. Good stuff.

Nice!

How about water pump?

Interesting video. More of a history of 911 designations.

That was super helpful as I’m on my first drive with my first 911 ( 993) . I was freaking out until I watched this video

Very good info on the Bar conversion to lbs Oil pressure

Any thoughts about Costco gas? Our Costco has the “Top Tier” gas label if that makes a difference. Thx

thanks. I just did the engine on my 84 Targa. My oil pressure stays at 5 all the time and is not working properly.I am waiting on a new gage. The information you provided will be very useful.

Great advice.

Good tip as always 👌

I have them thanks to you and Charles! TOP NOTCH QUALITY! My gut is they eliminated the magnet on the 993 when they added the second oil filter and as part of the total cost consideration.

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, THE BEST! THANK YOU!!!!

Tony, another great tip from the BEST IN THE BUSINESS!

you're a mine of information. We need more videos like this one!

Great explanation of the differences and instability of the M9X v the much improved stability in the MA1.
