TIPS OF THE MONTH
964 battery dead scews up idle -
If your battery goes very low or dead in a (1990-94) 964 your computer looses some of the idle control motor settings. These control the smoothness of the idle and low end throttle response. In order to reset these settings you must perform a system adaptation which can be done here at Powertech. – Brian

An Oil leak seen only when the engine is cold? -
944/968 Upper and lower balance shaft housing end plugs. These are sealed by an o-ring which hardens with age and heat, causing a leak. The leak will often be there only when the engine is cold. As the engine warms up, the seal or o-ring, softens up again, sealing up the leak. So the car must be watched for leaks before it's warmed up as well as when it is hot. -- Mike Carr

Is Your Car Wandering? -
Driving Irratically? Due to the age of the car, rubber bushings and ball joints could be worn.
