Porsche 1979 911SC Engine Teardown 

Glad you liked it! Kurt

Thank you Michael, great to hear from the home of Porsche.

Its okay it will be all fixed when it leaves here. Kurt

Music can be controversial, but I like it too. S

Thanks and sorry your engine experience did not go well. Kurt

@@klassikats I was a kid. Around 1980 I bought a non-running 1972 911e with Sportomatic (no rust, power windows!) When I got it running the knock in the engine warned me to go no further. I took it apart and learned that pieces of the torque converter broke off and circulated through the engine, ruining every major part. The cams had groves around 1.5mm deep. The crank, cams, oil pump…everything ruined! I sold it for what I paid and considered myself lucky. Love watching your videos. Thx

@@generalbystander1631 Wow, traumatic

Thanks for watching Kurt

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching.

Always terrific fun. Thanks!

We wont. Kurt

@@klassikats great! if possible, could we get a close look at the inside of the fan shroud?

@@daos3300 check it out when Kurt pushes the electric harness through the shroud. Not much going on on the underside. S

Cool, thanks Kurt

Yes, Its like doing a precision jigsaw puzzle. Kurt

I agree, whom ever assembled this should have seen/felt the issue and resolved before proceeding. Kurt

thinking the same thing, poor chain workin overtime.

Thanks Tim, If the music is playing That means I had nothing to say at that point. Thanks Kurt

Thanks Kurt

got to remember this engine is 45 years old now. Kurt

I answer this in the video. But here it is again, I suspect that when the exhaust rocker fell out there would still be combustion pressure in the cylinder. Because the intake valve opens when the piston is at TDC the pressure would be 9 times greater than it would when the exhaust valves opens. This pressure would hold the intake valve shut and the rocker was the weak link in the system and it broke when the valve would not open. Kurt

@@klassikats thnx kurt i remembered that part fell out right after i sent questionbut thought it was on other bank , i ll rewatch , before i ask another question. and if its another lame question , just say do ur homework or rewatch vid thnx again for response

about 10 times that!

911?

I only count 15 possible leak points, and only 5 points that are regular offenders. Kurt
