Cleaned the MAF sensor, the throttle body and the idle control valve. Car is running like a champ now, however looks like an AOS will be in my future. Some small residue in the manifolds.

Lot's of stuff this WE!

Confirmed that my measurements were correct and the QJ7000 is compatible with the 986:



Installed the LNE spin-on oil filter adapter, magnetic drain plug and ss300 filter mag along with an oil change.

Installed new Stabilus frunck and trunk struts.

Replaced wheel lock studs with 50mm standard wheel studs.

Learned that my 986 is a great vacuum cleaner (cigarette butts, really???)





Next up - cleaning the condensers and radiators, then fabricating intake grills using Custom Car Grills 77% flow black powder coated honeycomb grill stock.

Stay tuned!
