Need DIY for Oil filler tube.
cs jeff replied to D_Man's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Yes... the airbox was out. I got it all done in the wee hours of the morning, but it was a real struggle. I did strong arm the alternator out finally. The real test was putting it back in. No one mentioned that you have to put the pully bolt back in the alternator and drive the bushing back to give the necessary clearance to get it back in place. The bushing was rusted and I had to use a ton of penetrant, but it finally moved. You hit it with a hammer but be careful, because if you use excessive force, you could break the corner off the alternator housing. Then getting the plenum back in place took some time too. The filler neck is a piece of cake... getting to it and getting everything back installed around it isn't! -

I just went thru this DIY and got the part about removing the alternator. I have it loose, but it only swings up (clockwise) a short way before hitting the underside of the intake mainifold. I removed all the other brackets, lines, connectors, etc. that are in the way, but there's no way it will clear the bracket to slide out. Any ideas? Thanks. -
No... do not run the motor while flushing. Question for Loren... I have the Motive bleeder and a Longacre Racing plastic catch bottle (with a cool magnet to hold it against the calliper body) that has dual tubes that attach to both inner and outer bleeders. I opened them together while bleeding, instead of doing the outer then the inner bleed. Is that acceptable? Thanks.
