Ed Maurer replied to Greg's discussion How do you stop a dash crack?"Thank you. You are like the ultimate 968 go to guy. I will try this product on my good dash. My '93 has multiple cracks. I will look to replace if this re-cover does not work. Thanks again. Is it just me or…"
Ed Maurer replied to Greg's discussion How do you stop a dash crack?"Wish I knew. I think most of us have this same question. In the early '90's the materials used on dashboards were not as sophisticated as today. My '95 (came from the northwest) has no problems, my '93 came from…"
Ed Maurer replied to Monte Olsen's discussion Tracking down hatch squeaks and rattles, and eliminating them?"If slight pressure stops the sound you may also look at adjusting the pressure applied when the hatch locks. You can control how much pressure/resistance is applied when the hatch locks. Look at the locking studs, they can be adjusted…"
Ed Maurer replied to Monte Olsen's discussion Tracking down hatch squeaks and rattles, and eliminating them?"I don't know if this will help Monte but here is my limited knowledge.

Ed Maurer replied to Joseph McShane's discussion Side skirt clips??"Jeff thank you so much for posting this. I was a little apprehensive about tackling this but your information made it very easy. 1st car us a success, not broken clips. I did find I have several screws missing and had to repair…"
Ed Maurer replied to Joseph McShane's discussion general question about steering"Thought you might like the banner. It sums up my feelings for Porsches. Today I am installing new trim on my sills.

Thanks again."

Ed Maurer replied to Joseph McShane's discussion Side skirt clips??"Joe, did you find your clips yet. Mine just came in the mail today. Hope to start Sunday or Monday. I will try to document the process but no way mine will be as good as Jeffs. I did buy enough clips and hardware to do a…"
Ed Maurer replied to Bartek Wawruch's discussion Wiring diagrams"I picked mine up on e-Bay. Search under Porsche 968 Service and Repair Manual. They will cover all 4 years of production. Mine came as a CD version containing complete PDF files. They are not expensive, I think I paid maybe…"
Ed Maurer replied to A's discussion TIMING BELT QUESTION"Aside from oil changes the timing belt is the most fundamental maintenance item on 944's and 968's. If you are missing teeth on the belt it is gone. Trying to turn the engine over will only do more damage. They timing…"
