Have you changed/done anything since your last post to make it start regularly well?

Friend just sold the gold 84 3.2 Carrera I sold him a couple of years ago with Paul Stephens on SOR. They put the ad out as coming soon and it sold before the price was listed. Decent money too. They charge quite a bit though. From memory its £6K plus VAT. I'm looking at selling a couple of cars but I've had little luck on FB groups and SOR (I tried Paddlup last year before they tanked but luckily got my cars back without much bother). It's a job to know where really. I've an early 912 and Big Blue to sell.

I reckon she needs an italian tune up and a fresh tank of 98/99. Make sure you have breakdown cover though

Getting serious on fixing this little hiccup. Ordered a smoke test machine. Arrived yesterday. Never used one before but I guess you just unplug a vac line off the intake and see if any smoke comes out elsewhere. She ran wonderfully well at Castle Combe but I had to stop a couple of times to take out the ICV and give it a shake. That seems to reset it and all’s fine with the idle for a while again

Sure. I could probably help with that. Maybe in a flexible material like tpu

Good to see you Jon. Fun day 💪🏁

Yep, they ask for 4.5k. Daisy seems to have a quiet spot at about 3.5k 🤷🏼♂️💪

Drop the revs they ask you for 🫣

105db. I was on the limit.

Couple of pics of yesterday's brilliant pre 98 TD at CC. Weather was fantastic. Ran in groups of around 8 cars so tons of space. Daisy went well. Think I’d better get that 3.8 in 😂🤦♂️

Could have done Felix. Jevvy mentioned that. No longer. I’ve bunged that hose up for now. It’s the rubber one that’s a mystery really. This little nipple zip tied on 🤔

Still wrestling with an intermittent problem on Daisy. Since the clutch change and after a long run, idle becomes very unpredictable and then car dies. If you wait 5-10mins, take the idle control valve out and shake it, reinstall and start up, she’s golden again for another hour or two’s running. Then problem comes back again. I still think I failed to connect a vacuum line when reinstalling the engine. Spoke to Dave Barrsanders at last years Boxengasse and he said he thinks it’s a vacuum leak. @jevvy thinks it could be the vacuum to the resonator flap on the 964 plastic intake. I’ve found two loose vacuum lines. Black rubber line is open at one end and open on the other with a small plastic connector. Other is a cloth covered line that disappears into the firewall so I’m guessing it’s a tank breather. Any ideas? I can’t find an open vacuum nipple anywhere (but it is hard to feel/see the back of the intake 😂

Sounds hopeful 💪
