Devon- I feel as if I need to share what little technical info I have at my hands.
I'm glad to help others, always have been.

HTH.

Thanks Chris, I just found a couple of new sites I didn't know about. About you leaving how much will it cost for you to stay? I have never met anyone here but I feel like I know half of you.

I'll pay my 18$ a year and remain a paying member and support this cause- but the last weeks and months have worn me very thin. The 924S is for sale and I may just go to Corvette. Those guys are Americans with a sense of humor. I do miss my 70 'vette after this crap- even at 2$ a gollon for gas.

Hell, I may start watching NASCAR.

I personally like www.paragon-products.com , www.vertexauto.com, and www.944online.com for parts. They have all been very helpful to me and the quality is great.

Southwest Ohio Wrenchworks. Like Skunkworks for 944 and it's variants.
Remember S-Works? They produced the SR-71.
