No Load Is No Test. Turbo Trouble 2. Porsche 1976 930

[@peters1821]

I'm always amazed at the knowledge that you have. Thanks for sharing these videos, I learn a lot from them. Only been working on classic Porsches for 2 years but i have huge respect for these cars. I hope to learn a lot more from you!

Glad to help.

This is EXACTLY what I suspect with my 3.3L. I have the same issue, little to no boost. I did not check the cam timing when I put the engine in because I didn't have a Z block. Thank you for sharing this with me, you are a superstar for doing this in the car. It think I will pull the engine.

just take your time and work through the diagnostic tree. I would check engine leak down values, spark operation, and fuel before jumping into anything else.

Now that you've fixed it- I want it! Maybe you could put a turbo on my car. Excellent!

[@klassikats]

Would be better to just buy a turbo car than trying to re-fit your car with a turbo

Sounds just like my wife. “You got nuthin. I should be scared.”

Thanks

So awesome. Do the later intercooler cars have that same vacuum piston for changing the manifold length?

[@JanDootjes]

They do. I have a 3.3 and rebuild my engine completely. Discovered that my piston was seized and the rubber sealing rings where crumbling.

[@klassikats]

Yes they do

[@klassikats]

pretty normal for those rubber bumper gaskets to break up.

Great problem solving. Annoying when you find someone has paid for substandard work

[@klassikats]

Yes it is.
