Talking about older Porsches. I used to have a 1986 944. It came with a broken water cooler, i had my trusted mechanic change everything under the hood since i decided to use it as an everyday car 5 yrs ago. A new valve job, head resurfaced, new water pump, new alternator, all new belts/filters/seals...etc ..etc (all parts courtesy of Vertex auto in Miami). To cut my sweet story short, I sold the car to my best friend 2 years ago. Im happy to report that it's been 85k since the last engine refurbishing. ABSOLUTELY NO problems, Never stalled on me...Nothing,after 85k mi!...BTW, The Original A/C still blows cold!...Now thats REAL reliability!...i wish i can say that to newer Euro cars
