Thanks Thom, Going to meet him later today at the gas station and see if I can get more insight into how it is acting. He is a great guy and good neighbor, but is a retired pediatrician and it seems that babies and Porsches are not enough alike to help him figure out some of these problems so I help out when I can.
Any idea how I could access the tech bulletin for more info?
