True Island

Porsche Chick-isthmus? Not so. Three bridges connect the island (that Newport is on) to the rest of RI.

check the specs on your battery

When my battery died the AAA guy said he would test mine but would not sell me theirs since they had too many problems with them due to the Boxster's (and other modern cars) high electrical demands. ...

356

But maybe the owner saw Foose's "Overhaulin" when he re-made this B model. Of course Foose converted the rear window to an oval and went back to the fifties for beehive tail lights.

356 b t-6

The T-6 version of the B is cool and better than the T-5 because the gas goes in without the hood having to go up. They make a lot of patch panels but you probably are asking about the rear wheel...

Mine was dead flat one time and the AAA guy tested it. I had a charger so he told me how many hours to charge it-I did and it's been fine :o for more than a year. Tom

Recaro and Porsche have a very long history working together

It's an oft repeated story and a kind of fun fact to know (but I suspect many already do).

Most tire stores price match

Get the best price and then have your best installing shop match the price. I find almost all the tire shops in my area around Boston will match a written quote. Tom

Module '07-'99 won't work in '01 and newer

I tried to make a '97 module (they look the same) work in my '02 and blew a fuse for the whole dash. The temp. number would display but the module did not control the temp.

Why does A/C module from '97 blows fuse on '02?

I was told incorrectly that a '97 A/C module would work on my '02, so I had the LCD repaired on the old one. When I installed it, my dash fuse blew and I lost all instruments. Does anybody know what...
