camara shy 911t

Post by Helen »

Chris Knapman and Jamie from GTPP came to do a photoshoot yesturday and my 911t got all camara shy and peed oil all over the garage floor and now won't start..

seem to remember my 930 doing something like this last time Chris Knapman came around my house :shock:


maybe i should get Bert around to give my cars some therapy before Chris's next visit.

:lol: :lol:

Do you have spark ? Have you checked the points gap ? Is there fuel ? ..and at the carbs ? Is the CDI buzzing ? (I have a spare I can lend you if you want to try it )
