😂🤣🤣 Wow! Thank you for making me giggle out loud while sitting alone in my office 🙌. Perhaps she could be "DOGter Strange" for Halloween! 🦇 Thank you for watching 🤘😎
Love all these! And the dog! Took a break from cleaning out my Hurricane Ida destroyed house/attic. Enjoyed it and put a needed smile on me face! Belly slithering in attic pulling out parts for my 99 Carrera 2 ! God must drive one of these, car survived with only a right side mirror glass! Carry on sir! You are doing an incredible job! BTW the oil pump relief piston has been update to incorporate chamfers on leading edge of piston. Very inexpensive part and new spring while you are there, again very inexpensive. Godspeed! Dave
Dave, if these videos helped alleviate some of the stress you must be experiencing, that makes me very happy 🙌 I wish you the very best to get things back in order. From all the feedback I have been receiving through this channel I feel that the “99 Carrera will be one of the sought after years as time passes into history. Thank you for the lead on the oil pump relief parts, I will likely address this in this weeks episode Lee Jenkins at Hartech was kind enough to watch today’s video, he went as far as saying that the oil relief valve is the heart blood of the engine, I need to make sure it can move freely. I could not do this with out all the help from people like you ✊ I really appreciate you taking the time to comment Grazie mille! Fratello 🤘😎
This is exactly the video I've been in need of. I can't tell how helpful your 996 series has been to me. Can I ask how you cleaned up the oxidised aluminium on the engine ? Yours looks really clean!! Thanks again pal 👍👍
Hello Jon, i took the engine parts to the local car wash first then finished them off with brakleen. There is an episode about it somewhere 😅 Thank you for watching 🤘😎
Hi there Darryl 🙌 there are days I find excuses to go out to the garage just to see the engine 🤓. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment, thank you for watching 🤘😎
I didn't understand WHY they did that until I tried to undo the factory filter housing without a wrench... JFC. Strap wrenches were laughed at. I now have another application--specific tool in my toolbox.
There is an updated oil pressure relief valve with a slightly bevelled edge which helps to keep better pressure at tick over. Excellent videos can’t wait for the next one!
Hello Mike, that’s a good question. It’s expensive to live in this part of planet earth, you would need to complete multiple engines a month to make the math work as a business. There does seem to be a shortage of Porsche engine rebuilders on the west coast? What do you think?
@@ManinaGarage So here's the reader digest version. You appear to have the Machine Shop issue worked out, the parts supply worked out, but most importantly the F---ing Special tools issue that Porsche requires seems Sorted. Now having said that, very hard to find someone on the west coast who will rebuild a M96 engine without one having to sell a lung or kidney top pay for the privilege of having the engine rebuilt. IT would seem a waist of your new found skills not to parlay this special skill into a little Pizza and Beer Money. I mean you've gone thru the hard part, time to appreciate the fruits of your labor. Cheers Mike
@@mikebell1961 Aha! I thought we were talking hypothetical 🤓. For the record, I still feel like a Porsche engine dumbass 😜. I’m not sure if I would trust me to rebuild an engine for money, never mind a customer 😆. I agree that for first gen Carreras the tiny garage is ready to go. When this project is done I will have some solid math to run on, no matter what happens it will be interesting to see how much the whole thing cost plus how much actual labor was required. The videos take much longer to edit than the actual engine work takes to shoot. What part of the world are you in?
Oh my god I know what you mean!! I have a 1999 996 that I spend driving a couple weeks only to later have a bearing failure 😣 😭 been waiting on my cylinder sleeves to be replaced by LN, and replacing crankshaft.
That heartbreaker is our family obsession right now 😍 . Someone commented that Delta looks like Benedict Cumberbatch! I almost fell off my chair 😂🤣😁😭😂 Thank you for watching 🤘😎
Hi mucker, great video as always and hope you're keeping well and not overdoing things. You will love the Milwaukie Screwdriver, have one myself along with a load of other Milwaukie tools and wouldn't buy anything else, as their quality is second to none which you will see for yourself. Keep up the good work, and take it easy. Mick 👍🍻🍀
It was a genuinely exciting moment! A dedicated powered screwdriver will be very efficient. They seem to be a quality brand, I cant wait to go screw something 🤓. I’m trying to threat the needle between recovery and progress 😅. Not dead yet ✊. Thank you for being a part of this Mick 🙌
Can’t wait to see the heads go back on you are doing a fantastic job , I know I’m jumping the gun but curious to see what you’re going to do about the valve lifters. Peace
Howdy Richard 🤠, That is a great question about the lifters, the plan was to clean and reinstall. Do you think that is foolhardy? Should I buy new ones or get them reconditioned/tested? I really appreciate any insight you may have 🤓 Thank you for watching 🤘😎
@@ManinaGarage well since I had the cams off replacing the timing rails I started checking the lifters, glad I did some were locked up and so far one was not made properly wasn’t centered, trying to make this short some of the lifters, I was able to take them apart and clean springs check balls and put them back together but I would fill better with new ones because of that one bad lifter that I found, Pelican has new lifters two kinds $25.00 and $ 69.00 times 24 lifters.
@@richardowens6520 That is great information. Did you purchase any new ones or only clean/refurbish? I would like to avoid the expense of new lifters, perhaps there is a company that can test them? Can you tell by looking at them or poking them if they are functional? Thank you.
@@ManinaGarage thanks for getting back, haven’t purchased lifters yet, my problem is should I replace just the bad ones or replace all. People have VDO on UA-cam rebuilding the lifters that seem to work but the owner before me didn’t care what kind of oil he ran. If your lifters good I wouldn’t replace them, I’m gonna have to do more investigating. Thanks again for getting back to me. Peace
You have to be pretty hardc0re to delete the oil/coolant "cooler" - lots of crazy parts needed. Focus on the oil baffling underneath in the stock pan first. PS another great vid, Finn!!!! Love Delta.
Hello Mike, You are absolutely right, even the people that sell the delete say that. They recommend leaving the original style installed and adding an oil cooler through the backflow preventer. They say (Miguel @ TuneRS Motorsports) behind the passenger wheel is a common place to move the cooler for better air flow or if you run Kevlar hoses they recommend running a 3rd radiator at the front of the car. Thats mostly for racers really, it is educational to learn about the various implements people have devised to fix problems or making them more durable in a racing environment. You are 100% on the baffle also 🙌 From the feedback people have been sending, the X51 style baffle is a very popular upgrade even on road cars, that is something I am looking into. For now, a subscriber sent me a baffle to replace the broken one that came with the car. I really appreciate all your feedback Mike, its great to have you looking over my shoulder 🤘😎
Wait a sec . . . I shell out $300k for the Porsche Speedster and, and, they, they freaking put a sticker on the front instead of the actual shield?!?! I've got that same sticker on my coffee mug! Great video as always!
I find these videos so therapeutic I’m considering buying a 911 engine to renovate. However more urgent, is Amber available from Porsche and do you have a part number so I can order one please??
Happy Tuesday Martin 🙌, it's funny you mention the therapeutic benefits of observing engine rebuilding, the work has a similar vibe, I dig it. I found a 996 engine just 20 miles from here that needs rebuilding, do you want the guy's number? Speaking of numbers......Ambers "Part" number is 1(619) 555-6969 Merry Christmas 😂🤣.

Well apparently that part number is for the USA Porsche market only! But I’ve done some research and a quick cross reference shows she will fit perfectly in my Ferrari passenger seat!! I can arrange air freight no problem!!
