First, guys thanks for the insight and responses.
I was moving the transmission around today…to get it out of the way and get into the freezer (which is not a Porsche so it still runs). I noticed that the tranny housing made a loud 'ding' noise. A thought said, "Where have I heard that noise?"
I rocked the transmission again and it made a noise, another 'ding'. I then shook it violently - to simulate the action of a LWFW and it sounded like a bunch of marbles in a can!
It is the clutch release lever mechanism hitting up against the housing. Who picked that? Next question, what is supposed to stop the lever from slapping the housing like that? This is a little more than I bargained for with a LWFW. Too many things vibrating cannot be good. Pity! The driving part of the LWFW WAS GOOD!
Now to confirm my suspicions….I need to start the car. You guys sure I can start the car without the transmission attached? It looks so naked!
