74 911 engine starting after 8 years - your comments welcome
shopcarpro replied to shopcarpro's topic in 911, 912 Series
Hi everybody, Thanx for all contributions. At this stage I have all 6 plugs out. They are all fouled - Black & wet. Wet since I checked the fuel system for leaks and the line from the fuel filter to the fuel distrbtr is leaking heavy due to dry rot, and one fuel line from the fuel dstrbtr to an injector is broken. Plan to replace both items and the plugs. Harmonyroadporsche, thanx for taking the time to write your very well worthy advice, which I would follow as this project proceeds. Loren, will do so. The car went into storage after a repo from a business and sat there until I got it. Not much care was taken during storage, but the car has everything on it as far as I see. Also thanx to magcuda & wvicary for your contribution. Keep it up guys, I need to hear from somebody who went thru the drill first hand. :clapping:

Hi everybody, My first post in the forum, hoping to receive comments from experienced/knowledgeable members. This 911 sat in storage for over 8 yrs. I am hesitating to crank up in view of the unknown stage of the engine and the consequences to follow. Would be thankful for any suggestions / past experience in this situation from members who may be qualified to comment thru their past involvements with 911s. Also have a leak in the fuel supply line from the filter to the CIS and one fuel injector supply hose is broken, which two I also plan to fix/replace prior to cranking up. This is an original US 911 with US compliance plate on the door jamb. Thanks in advance for reading this post and any meaningful response. :clapping:
