@ 16:43 - Noooo Randy. PLEASE. If there is one car you do not 'have fun with some mods' its a Porsche 911. I will keep repeating it "Originality is everything". Keep it original and you will find a buyer looking to pay Porsche money and you will make a profit. Mod it and you lose the genuine Porsche buyers and you are in Lottery Land. It is a lovely car though Randy. Well done finding it and restoring it to good health. God drives Porsche and he will bless you! ...lol If the oil does return I would be looking at the oil / coolant intercooler not a damaged head. It runs too well for that.

You are right. The more he spends on mods the less the car is worth. When I go looking for cars and I see mods I have to ask who did them and what was the quality of their work and how much is it going to cost me to get it back to where it was. He should leave it alone.

The hoses are reinforced rubber, when you pull a vacuum on them you are pulling against the grain, they are designed to expand not contract. That kit might save time but its costing money. Essentially the hoses have a designed matrix embedded in them thats ideal for the forces involved i.e. straight line, curve t-piece etc. When you pull a vacuum you are reversing those forces. I wouldn't bother. That kit is more harm than good.

You need to replace ALL rubber hoses on the cooling system if you haven't already done so. The petroleum base of the oil has destroyed the integrity of the rubber, which is why your Y-hose was swollen. Even if the hoses appear to look okay on the outside, the integrity may be reduced or destroyed internally. If you lose coolant later and the engine overheats, another head may crack and then your right back to square one.

The Shout is reacting with the rubber of your hoses and causing them to fail. And they probably won't be the only hoes or seal failure in your cooling system. I remember back in the 1990's when Dex Cool first come out in the General Motors cars and trucks it was reacting with the hoses and different metals of the blocks and causing the cooling system to gum up and get nasty. It's a safe bet that the Shout is reacting with the rubber of the hose and causing your failures.

If you keep using the air lift, you're gonna keep tearing up hoses. A cooling system isn't meant to have that much vacuum pressure. Atmospheric pressure (0) to maybe +20 psi is all she wants. Obviously some sort of vacuum happens when pressure changes with opening/closing of thermostat and system, but that's when it's full. Plastic tanks and rubber hoses shouldn't vacuum down like A/C systems. Also, the bottom drain won't get all air out of a system. Air goes up, not down. You would need to find the highest point of the pressurized cooling system to fully bleed off.

You don’t have to wait to start the car. That countdown is just an indicator of the oil quantity sensor’s confidence in its ability to measure oil level accurately.

If the leak was at part number 32 on the list I sent there was a TSB not a public notification and all of them should have been previously replaced. It wasn't a recall just a Technical Service Bulletin sent out. Repairs were supposed to be Free when they were newer. It would have been done during a Oil change and the Customer would have not known. There were a lot of failures in Europe. It paid on Warranty .6 labor Hours. A lot of them Failed...

Probably the oil separator on the crankcase vent ..they all develop leaks..it can be changed without pulling the engine but not so sure its easier

I would order all the coolant hoses online and just replace them. Once you put coolant in it, you really don't want the hoses bursting on you.
