What is the setting for a Porsche 944 non turbo fuel rail pressure setting I have a aftermarket Lindsey racing fuel rail with regulator?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

according to the haynes manual the normal operating pressure for the n/a fuel rail should be 48 psi. If it is below that, you have a bad fuel pump. If you unplug the regulator vacuum hose and the fuel pressure goes above 58 psi, your regulator is shot.

The sensor reads from the flywheel so look to the back of the engine or the front of the transmission bellhousing to find it.

Where is the transmission fluid on 1983 Porsche 944?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I really think you should have done some research before purchasing this unique sports car. The transmission (or technically, the transaxle) is located in between the rear wheels, the the engine up front. There is no dipstick. The fluid is check through the filler plug in the transaxle, it is also filled here. I recommend buyinga a haynes amanual. Keep an eye on the water pump and timing belt as well. If either of these fail, you will have very expensive problems. All leaks should also be fixed immediatly. If coolant leaks into the engine through the oil lines, kiss you engine goodbye. Lack of lubrication siezes the crank bearings.

Your 944 1985 4-cylinder clutch has to be pulled halfway up after shifting?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The clutch pedal has an assist spring and return spring. The assist spring tension must be adjusted to create a balance point at which the clutch pedal will over center and return to the fully disengaged position. It is also possible that the system may have air or the push rod attached to the pedal may be out of adjustment.

Is it possible to make at least as much horsepower as the Porsche 944 Turbo from the base non turbo 1987 944 2.5L engine?

User Avatar

Asked by Ferdinand944

the 2.5 engine will accept a super charger that will take it up to 220-250BHP but you will be sacrificing the longevity of the engine. all the oilseals, con rods, pistons, crank and cam shafts etc will not have been designed to take that sort of power. chances are you will blow the engine soon after fitting it. Try just mapping the ECU, this will give you a few extra HP. if you want the power of a turbo then get a turbo.

How do you repair the exterior door handles on a 1987 Porsche 944?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They are the same as on a mid 70's to early 90's water cooled VW. The only difference is they don't say "porsche" across them like the later model 944 handles do. They are dirt cheap - like $14 complete. Just remove yours and swap out the lock core with your old one.

Every 45,000 mies. Change the water pump every other time you change the cam belt as it is driven by the belt. Warning:This is an interference engine and if the belt breaks serious engine damage will occur.

Where is the ignition control unit located in a porhse 944?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Only the 944S's used an actual ignition control module, and it was located on the fender under the coolant expansion tank. The other 944's and 924S's used the signals from the referance sensors to the DME and the DME controlled everything. The DME's are located: 82-85 - under the steering wheel. 85.5-91 under passengers kickpanel, pull back carpet (it's velcro'd in under the dash at the / ) remove 4 screws to remove the wood panel, remove 4 plastic screws to remove the metal piece that holds the DME in.

WHAT WOULD CAUSE no oil pressure in my 944 turbo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Indication? Bad sending unit. Bad gauge. Bad wiring between the two.

Actual No Pressure? Leaking front crankshaft seal. Not enough torque on the crankshaft pulley bolt and the oil pump gear can slip (should be 190 ft/lbs I think). Worn pump gears, but this is rare.
