Wow. Looks good. I though the moss and oak trees growing on it were permanent. Pressure washers work miracles.

I'm writing a modern adaptation of Don Quixote. 944s figure prominently.
I followed the advice here and elsewhere for Mobile 1 Delvac to fill the G50 box. Since it also looked to be compatible with my 4runner's diffs, I bought 3 gallons and did the 993 and all 3 diffs in the 4runner. The retired AF COL previous owner of the T4r was pretty fanatical about maintenance, and lube that drained from the diffs looked clean and poured out very easy, so I'm assuming it was a synthetic. Whatever it was, the Delvac is clearly superior in at least one way: after about 500 miles I'm quite sure that fuel 'economy' is up at least 1mpg. Which isn't much, but for a 2 metric ton V8 AWD that's over 5%. If the same were to hold up against whatever usually goes in a G50, Delvac would be the cheapest horsepower you can buy.

As my inlaws always say, "Home again and broke" - the wallet, that is.

Anyone need a set of RS engine mount?
At the end of the process the car went to Taylor's for an alignment and AC compressor change, and I asked him to R&R the trans mount. He found that it was a stock mount (I don't know where I saw that RS part number) and changed out the motor mounts. Voila, the gearbox is no longer rattling around the cabin when driving. Now that the gearbox noise is reduced, I hear the intake drone from my surgery on the airbox cover. It's cool to hear the engine gulp air at start and when you step on it, but I must be getting more delicate in my old age. Time to pick up a stock cover.
