Ok, that connector block will work with the 2.5 mm pin extractor.

Correctly installed, the seal is one or two millimeters from the end of the bore. It is not supposed to be flush with the end. As others have suggested, you'll be fine if you clean out the gouge...

If it's the connector I think it is, it has 2.5 mm round female pins. If that it correct, the Amphenol QXRT12S tool is your friend.

Yes, they can be removed safely. There is nothing in there that will fall out. Torque to 30 Nm.

It is not possible, for me at least, to give you a 100% diagnosis via email. With that caveat, I would say that it is not normal to hear gear noise under acceleration (foot on the throttle). With...

I believe you are looking for 987.423.113.16, which is a rigid line swaged to flex hose. Illustration 702-008.

There are two seals here. One is the radial oil seal in the t/o bearing guide tube, 016.311.113.C. It is a nuisance to remove, and given how cheap the tube is, I usually just replace the tube when...

Hmmm... so the problem occurs when you're pressing the clutch pedal, but no noise if your foot is off the pedal. A few suggestions, but no certainty as to the issue. I'd begin by making sure the...

The repair depends on the exact damage. More often than not, the engagement teeth (dog ring) on second gear needs replacement, which is a machine shop task. I usually find that the 1st/2nd shift...

Correct, flywheel lock not necessary because you don't need to remove the crankshaft bolt and pulley. Just remove the M6 bolts holding the rear timing belt cover to the engine, and you will have...

Exhaust studs are not an area of personal expertise, but my intuition would be to focus heat on the head, not the stud. Heating the stud would I assume expand it in its bore, and so make it harder...

To give a yes-or-no answer, I would say "yes" to the general statement that a 944 NA (eight-valve, normally-aspirated) transmission will not survive in a Turbo engine, or any engine that carries more...

IIRC, the lugs on the two wires will only fit the posts in the proper way. There's an M4 and an M5 (again, IIRC) threaded post and nut. And the smaller ring terminal on one of the wires won't fit...

I've had a business for 27 years doing race prep, service, and repair of Porsche transmissions.

You are correct that your car has a G86.20 transmission, which is kind of a G96 held up to a mirror. You should be fine with any G86.20 transmission as a replacement. I've rebuilt a bunch of them. ...

It depends a bit on how stuck the radial oil seal is to the case. The VW681 generally works well on small diameter seals. I saw a video, I think linked from the 356 Registry forums, where the Lisle...

It would almost certainly be a mistake to put a 944 Turbo transmission in your 84 NA. The taller gearing will not make you happy. 944-series cars always had an LSD available as an option: for your...

Mould will grow anywhere and requires no fertilization, watering, sunlight. I'd just wash it with soap and water, and optionally treat it with your favorite plastic dressing. I like Meguiars.
