    The article above lists the rpm ranges for base and S engines in the 987.

    Try posting your request in the required radio code forum and you will get a response................................ Lost radio codes

    It is an alarm armed indicator.

    E6 fuse is for Term.30 Telephone/Handy, Navigation Control Unit, ORVR (1999-2004). ORVR stands for onboard refueling vapor recovery system, which is part of the EVAP system, which has multiple electric valves in it:

    There isn't the kind of debris I would expect from a serious failure, but that rather large ferrous item bothers me, from your photos I cannot say what it might be, but I can say it should not be there................

    The sump cover is a relatively flat plate held in place by bolts around its parimeter.......................

    LN Engineering has covered (with photos) how to identify which bearing you have by examining the flange cover without removing it: How to identify which IMS bearing
  9. JFP in PA
    Rather than see the oil, I would like to see the sediment at the bottom; if it is metallic and ferrous (picked up by a magnet), you have a serious problem. Another place to look is to drain the engine oil and then pull the sump cover as it would collect such debris.

    Try this: Porsche TSB 6924 Seat belt Just be aware that Porsche considers TSB's part of their intellectual property, and will go after anyone publishing them online, which is why we no longer list them on RennTech 😉
  11. JFP in PA
    Yes, you will be able to time without this tool; the tool just makes the process very slick. Porsche engineering sometimes shows up more in their service tools......
  12. JFP in PA
    WHT 001 937 is the correct part and both the fill and drain are the same.
  13. JFP in PA
    If you are referring to the one with the knurled shaft, it is used to move the cam during reallocation. The upper right image are designed to hold the cams in place after the cover is removed, but can also be used during reallocation.

    We have a collection of various size rubber caps that are fuel resistant that we use for this and other temporary purposes such as capping brake lines to keep the system from draining:
  15. JFP in PA
    It is called a "siphon". We always capped the line to prevent this.
  16. JFP in PA
    Get the battery tested.
  17. JFP in PA
    Amazon sells them, as do almost any auto tool outlets, very common tool in just about any well-equipped shop: Unfortunately, it is very easy to trap air in Porsche systems, and getting it out is just about an everyday question here and on other Porsche technical forums.
  18. JFP in PA
    Perhaps, but the best way to remove any trapped air is with a vacuum filling system, which can be used on an already full system to "burp" out any air.
  19. JFP in PA
    Both problems point to a dead or partially dead hole, question is why? Pull the plug and look at it, if it is black and sooty, it isn't firing consistently. Question then is why, the EVAP system is incapable of killing a single cylinder, so it is something closer to that cylinder (coil pack, plug, injector, harness and connections, etc.).
  20. JFP in PA
    In order to do any tests on this valve, you need to get access to it, so by that point you might as well pull it for bench testing. but that valve malfunctioning should not cause a single cylinder misfire on cylinder #6. Are you completely sure you don't have a coil/plug/injector issue on that hole?
  21. JFP in PA
    You need to get a wiring diagram for the car to find that out.
  22. JFP in PA
    Consider becoming an contributing memeber..................
  23. JFP in PA
    Not if there is also a short on the same wire. Test for continuity and presence of ground on each wire while the harness is disconnected from the DME and the sensor.
  24. JFP in PA
    But did you test the wires between the sensor and the DME for continuity or shorts to ground? Your code is for an open circuit, indication of a wiring discontinuity.

    My wife and I are major contributors to the museum's river otter program, and we also both volunteer as time permits with us living several states away. And when you get a chance, try Salsa's second location just up the road in Lusby, definitely a favorite. Small world..............😉
