  1. Thanks. With all I read about people tinkering with that part, and it going bad, and given the time that it takes to get in there and man-handle it, I think I will just spend the $200. Does that make sense? Thank you for a wonderful service to everyone who loves this car. Loren was right. Just installed the part, car runs like a top, hesitation at 5000 gone
  2. Loren knows what he is talking about. A couple of weeks ago, he advised that I had an MAF problem, and he was right. Just changed it with a part I bought cheap on line and car is back to normal greatness. Thanks to Loren and the others that help out on this forum. This one repair saved me more than my Durametric code reader cost. By the way, I had an identical power drop at 5000 rpm before I changed the part.

  4. BY the way, air filter is stock, and clean. I have a fuel filter but have not installed yet. Porsche fault code is "361" not the "361a" which I typed.
  5. Thanks for the info. I cleaned the MAF and the CEL went out for two weeks, but I noticed a definite misfire/loss of power in the 4500 to 5000 rpm range. This is a 98 with 63K miles on it. It finally threw the CEL on again, went off on its own after an hour. Put my Durametric on and got codes 1130 (Porsche fault 361 a) and 1128 (Porsche 360) explained as idle range in banks 1 and 2 exceed limit value. Car stats well, idles around 800 (std tran), runs fine until under load of high revs. Throttle response seems a little lagging compared to pre-fault.
