Hello guys. So, here's the deal. I have a 77 Porsche 924 Martini & Rossi Championship Edition that I have had a couple years now, it was in wonderful condition when I got it, and since then, I've ...

That's a pretty penny.
If there are no negative effects (besides emmisions) to deleting the pump, that seems the route to go. Does anyone know if there are any ill effects of deleting it?

Good god, that's a relief.
So, is there any negative effects caused by not having the air pump operating?
Is there any difference between just cutting the belt, and actually removing the air pump a ...

So it is the air pump?

Okay, I do not believe it is the timing belt, and since there is no balance belt on this version of the 924 that rules that out as well. Here, I will upload some better pictures so yall can see better ...

I am so lo ...

So, I've just noticed within the last day, or so, that neither one of my radiator fans are kicking on. Therefore causing my car to overheat, and for my temp gauge to act up.
One (the drivers side fan ...

This may be a silly question, maybe not. Not quite sure yet.
But basicially, I'm wondering if i put the right distributor rotor in my 77 924, and if it even is a big deal or not.
In the diagrams, i ...

Although, is it too tight if I can just push the shifter, without putting the clutch in, while driving, and it slides out of gear? Or is that normal?
I mean, I still have to depress the clutch to shi ...

Yeah, it still has a little bit of give, before the resistance kicks in.

Got it fixed. It was a problem with the cable needing adjusting. I tightened it up quite a bit, now it works like a champ. It was throwing me off because it seemed really tight already, with the lever ...
