Heavy white smoke is indicative of a blown head gasket or cracked head/block. Coolant is probably leaking into the combustion chamber. Run a compression test to further diagnose. Another reason is that you might be burning a lot of oil. does the smoke disappear like steam or say in the air?

I guess your talking about the 911S and 911L? Porsche basically introduced three letter designations in 1967-68 to name the different variants of the basic 911 they were introducing. They ranged from lowest to highest in power and luxury. The 911S was Porsche's "Sport" model 911 between 1967 and 1978. It had a more powerful engine than just the base 911 and included fancier trim, sporting the first Fuch alloys when it was introduced instead of the old 356 inspired wheels on the base 911. The "Sport" model was to receive the newest updates, including mechanical fuel injection, while the 911T was still stuck with a carburetor. The next step down was the 911L (it switched letters to 911E after a short time). It was basically a basic 911 model that sported the 911S trim, was a little less expensive than the 911S, and had a little more horsepower than the 911T, but a little less than the 911S. It was sandwhiched between these two models and was the middle of the road 911. The difference is that it was not as powerful as the S, and received new updates a little later than the S. That's about all I know. If your interested look it up.

Bavarian motor works

BMW is Bavarian Motor Works.

The "logo" is the rotation of a propeller on an aircraft engine. BMW started with aircraft engines, then motor cycles, then cars.

It depends on the model. If you're comparing a Gallardo and a Boxter, then Lamborghini. But if it's a Porsche Carrera GT challenge and a Gallardo, then the Gallardo would get creamed.

Yes, a pre-owned Porsche is a good investment. The German car company is known world wide for valued performance and reliable engineering. While new models are still too expensive for the average wallet, a pre-owned one makes it possible for more people to enjoy this luxury.

You attach the carb to your runners, and reroute your accelartor cable to the carb. You will also need a different fuel pump, one rated about 3lbs as the stock fuel pump is for fuel injection. Brian Minson, Editor Porsche 9 Magazine www.9magazine.com

it depends... i have owned a porsche 968 coupe with 4 seats, a porsche 911 turbo with 4 seats, a porsche gt3 with 2 seats, and a posche carrera gt with 2 seats. The porsche's that tend to be faster more expensive seem to have 2 seats, due to the fact that a lot of the expensive 1's, especially the gt3's, are meant for racing/speed. 2 seated porsches have exra weight in the back of the car for traction and grip, which makes them easy to control in higher speeds.

Every buying and selling process should have detailed agreement. The return policy may be is included there. So check it, and tell me your find outs please.

When you had the accident you and the other driver should have exchanged insurance company details and your names and addresses. If you didn't do it then, and there was a police report filed, you can probably get a copy of the police report. But you tell your insurance company you were hit,and give them the details of the other driver and their insurance company (I hope they had one!) and they negotiate liability with the other person's insurance company. Usually, like a rear-ending, fault is pretty obvious; sometimes not. But that's part of the reason you pay your insurance: so they can take care of stuff like this for you. Phil

It depends on which model you order. A 911 Turbo takes about 6 months.

Over time, the rubber in the radiator hoses becomes brittle causing it to crack very easily. As the hot radiator coolant surges through the hoses under pressure, it makes it very easy for the hoses to break. (most of the time in the hardest places to find) The solution to finding the hole would be to take a garden hose, and put it in the radiator top, run it so the radiator won't run out of fluid and try to assess where the water/coolant mixture is seeping from. Either have a garage fix it, or purchase a new hose and replace.

What exactly is wrong with it? If this is an early car, pre '85.5 then it's easier to just remove it and replace it with a handle from a later car '85.5+. It's a direct bolt in and it's much more solid, the early ones tended to have lots of slop in them and the catcher would go past the teeth causing it to not work afterwards. If you don't want to change it you will have to remove the assembly disassemble it and then reset the catcher and then when you get done adjust your parking brake shoes and your brake cable so that it catches before the handle goes up that high.

It's pronounced "Porsha" because it is a family name, and that's the way they pronounce it. Your location and/or the language have nothing to do with it.
