The local Porsche mechanic told me that no warm will come to the engine or cats if I ran it till I got the parts. My way might not be the correct way but being a landscaper I have only a few hours off and I chose not to waste them. I can make more money in the time that it takes to pull thr valves and check them than the cost of two sets of valves. Good Luck, Ed
Any chance that you'll take some pics of the DIY? I need to do mine and it may be helpful.
