    Don’t forget to make the cut out in the engine compartment seal to clear MFI drive belt.

    notice bolt location, the color and the type.

    Simon. One more thing I just noticed. There is an additional piece of engine tin that covers the MFI drive pulley on the front left of the motor. I don’t see it installed on yours.

    Porsche Classic sells new ignition timing ones for $25-$30 - they appear to be very good
