Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?
F****** Targa is testing me. Reserving out of the garage it caught the front panel again and pulled it front. Exactly the same way as last time. Appears that hitting it and swearing at it with a rubber hammer just makes it look worst.
I'm guessing that is another 1000 plus down the drain. 538 for just for the part!
I will have to remove the extra security garage door latch it keeps catching on.

I’ve had similar reactions like you had- you’re not alone. There’s something so therapeutic about beating the crap out of something sometimes.

In preparation for Sunday, I polished the 24hrs du mans badge and added my lonestar 912 badge that has been waiting for the past 11 yrs. Now I just need to make it to Stanford.

Had a nice day driving around Warwickshire in the Targa with the back window down.
Then decided to tune it and got it running much better with my new toy. Air/fuel meter

Nice drive out to Fenny Compton for a walk.
When I got back I changed my main jets to 140 and fixed an oil leak

Spent afternoon reinstalling the new throttle cable I fitted two weeks ago in a continued effort to get a smooth, light throttle. Hateful job. Decided the 914 was designed by a sadist.

That's OK if you are a masochist owner/ fettler.KS wrote:Spent afternoon reinstalling the new throttle cable I fitted two weeks ago in a continued effort to get a smooth, light throttle. Hateful job. Decided the 914 was designed by a sadist.
