Does this fit the bellcrank end of the pushrod that actuates the throttle body? I seem to remember something about that one not being cut for the retaining clip.

Not all of the ball cups have the hole through the neck to accept the retainer.

The cable from the linkage to the throttle body usually does not. At either end.

It does seem to vary year-to year with later years having fewer clips.

and Happy Holidays to all

After sitting for some time my 928 had ABS issues. Would trigger the ABS pump while not moving.

I just pulled the ABS relay. When I cleaned the wheel speed sensors I found the male/sensor side plugs had deteriorated. The harness/female side seemed okay.

Is there a solution for this or do I just order new wheel speed sensors?




I'm ordering all the stuff I need to rebuild the AC system, need new main fan bearing, and while I have the dash out to inspect vacuum AC controls I plan on recovering it.

This car costs me $3000 minimum every time I touch it, it seems.

These are available which simulate (to a degree) the round connectors if originality is not important to you:

Color code and color name will be in PET.

[h2pmr]

thanks Dave, i had a look on PET and it could be marine blue or cobolt blue, but looking online my guess is marine blue as google AI says marine blue is a deep dark blue shade.
cheers

OTTOMH, without trudging to the shop to look, I think it's the same as the bulb for the interior lights. Easy to check.

[jschiller]

PET says 99963101890 Bulb M 12V, 3W.

Not so?

Not so. '91+ is different from -90. And it is as I wrote: same as interior lights.

[worf]

Oh... and Phil? Are you hungover dude? That was not Advanced PET Sluthing

[h2pmr]

thanks Dave

Ah. Yes, I can see how, on the one or two days a year the Sun comes out over there, that the effect might be stunning

I've noticed a new transmission leak, it's on the passenger side near the reservoir. It doesn't look like the pan gasket as it's wet above it as well.

Transmission last serviced in ~2021, last work done was changing the vacuum modulator ~6 months ago. That side is clean.

It wasn't leaking, drove the car a couple thousand miles, now it's leaking. I'd like to get it addressed before I take it off the lift bars tomorrow. Anything common?

Cap loose?

Is the cap's seal missing? Or wounded?
