Re: Unused cable at Voltage Regulator - 1968 912

It doesn’t connect. It just sits there confusing us. Very useful for remote starts when you are looking to fiddle in the engine bay.

Re: Unused cable at Voltage Regulator - 1968 912

It connects to the starter motor on a 912. Not sure of its purpose in the 911 loom. With the ignition switched on it can be used to start the engine from the engine bay by touching it to live on the voltage regulator. Can’t remember which terminal off the top of my head.

Re: Anyone else had this issue?

I'm curious as to how you know what "low level groaning down a drain pipe!" Sounds like. I can't remember when I last experienced that......

If something were to happen in Ireland I would be up for it. Could also provide a way point/accomodation in Donegal if it is a smaller number of people..

I know some good roads around loch Erne/ Fermanagh/Sligo way as well.

Re: Koni: OPC versus premier dealers

OPC TAX.

Nothing wrong with demon tweaks.

I bought my koni reds from a smaller trader.
When they needed attention they went back to the UK distributor for the work.

It would be the same wherever you bought them.

Your first beetle had an underside? You lucky.......

Very real...

Not as nice as my friends Serge Leflohic's Beetle 'Traveller', though...

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........

Out of curiosity, does the v5c state whether the car is rhd or LHD? Don't think I've ever looked for it. Other body/chassis mods and engine/gearbox numbers will be the sticking point. I wonder how the V5c reads at present
