I was waiting for him to say he found a GTR in a barn
That interior looks near mint. Obvious normal wear but nearly perfect.
Is that dash even cracked? _________________ 1980 931 since 1989

| dash has small cracks, but the interior is pretty much perfect. The leather in the seats is kind of stiff. Can you believe even the sunroof in this car works? |

Ha Ha Shmo, I'm guessing Fuel Pump Relay. Nice list of alternatives.
JC, what year is it, and mileage? Nice tool kit, mine was wedged under the spare and formed into a glob of rust

FPR, fuel pressure regulator. The fuel pump relay is more commonly referred to as the DME relay around here.
This car is a 1984. I dont know what the mileage is. The guage says 20K miles, but the last stated mileage in the documentation I found in the glovebox was around 50K miles in 1997. The car was certainly well taken care of. |

JC, I would have never guessed that, I participate in class, but I don't pay attention.
Now I'm trying to figure out what DME stands for .
