1st Boxster 7th Porsche, we now have 4 in the family

Changed the MAF yesterday afternoon and the car has never run better. We haven't had it that long but when started up and cold it had a flat spot and some stumbling. This is what led to the software purchase for looking at things that the computers are supposed to help with.

Install MAF and clear the codes. Drive around a bit and check for new codes. It's throwing a code for the 02 sensor on the #2 bank in front of the cat. Pull in the computer and look at the reading for the o2 sensor and see it reads zero voltage. Check the plug to make sure all is well and then install a new one. Guess what? No more o2 codes.

Today wasn't all sunshine, bunnie rabbits and unicorns tho.... Fix one problem and another crops up. Water pump has decided to pack it in this morning with a nice drip, drip, drip on the drive. What God did I offend to deserve this? I just put 2 gallons of Porsche coolant and demineralization water in the beast. So, new water pump tomorrow and maybe the cooling system gremlins will finally be dead.

More to do, and will try to post some pictures tomorrow to close out some projects.

I saw on another thread you mentioned about buying some paint. Are you painting the whole car or just some parts? Please let us know how that turns out too. I'll need to paint some parts on mine and I'm very nervous about color matching.
