I have a 1987 944 (non turbo) and it runs great except after accelerating to
about 60 the car dies. After it sits for awhile it will start back up and
run until it does the same thing. When it stops it is dead, but keeps coming
back. Any help on this? DME???? Chips? Ignition? Thanks ...

I've heard that the Porsche 944 has its transmission in the rear ?
If true, any websites with cutaway pictures of Porsche, showing
transmission.
Does the 968 have same setup ?

The odometer on an '83 944 that I recently picked up is not working - mph work
fine.  The previous owner said it broke and he never bothered having it
repaired.  Since the trip segment is set to zeroes I'm assuming he tried to
reset it while moving and broke a gear (I have read that ...

A word to those of you who are replacing your clutches - just as you would
change the pressure plate, throwout and pilot bearing at that time, be sure
that you also remove the flywheel and replace the rear main seal. New cheeshead
botls on the flywheel are also a cheap investment.

I recently picked up an '83 944.  The car is in great shape mechanically but
needs some cosmetic help in the interior due to spending a lot of time in the
Arizona desert.  It seems that most of the interior plastic parts have become
very brittle.

Hey, I just posted here a few days ago. If you remember my 86 was heating up
almost the 3rd mark on the water temp gauge, then cooling down, then heating
up (it seems to run cooler when I'm stopping and going in town and is steady
hot on the highway). I am going to try to flush the ...

Any recommendations?  Either storefront or internet.
Thanks,

Just bought a 1987 944 (NA).  I do not have an owners manual (but looking
for one) and need to know what is the yellow screw-off cap that sits to the
rear of the oil dipstick for?  I am assuming it is not the oil fill, because
I think I found that on the right front, and it isn't ...

1st thing I need to do when I start up from cold is pump the brakes.
The peddle goes straight to the floor. One pump and it's back up.
I've checked fluid and booked it in for a service. I would like to know what
it could be.

Thinking of purchasing a used 944 in the years ranging from 83-88. Some have
0ver 130,000. Is it worth it or am I asking for trouble i.e transmission clutch
engine etc

So having tried every combination of heating control, I am finally ready to
admit that my heat isn't working.  I worked when I bought the car (20 days
ago) but isn't now.  Can't seem to find any mention of a heater core, or
anything else about heating in my Haynes manual.  Any ideas ...

I'm looking for recommendations for front brake pads on my 944, the sensor
indicates I need replacements. Are the OEM pads the best to use or are there
some better pads out there. Specifically with better braking power, less
brake dust, no brake squeal, and longer brake pad life? ...
