The car drove fine for the first couple hundred miles then I got a misfire code for cylinder 8 I pulled the plug and it was fouled bad other spark plugs looked fine, did a compression check on all the cylinders everything it within spec.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Not sure if this will get flagged for the wrong forum. Wasn't sure where to post it. Supporting Porsche so maybe that works. Anyway...checking to see if anyone is going or has been. Looks like my family wants to come with so I'm looking for some info on where to stay, sit, paddock info etc. Definitely want to see the cars up close and take pics. Only interested in attending the Le Mans race so I think I only need Saturday tix. Any info anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I just bought the car from a dealer earlier this month (no warranty/my loss **** happens) with 55,000 miles on it.
The car drove fine for the first couple hundred miles then I got a misfire code for cylinder 8 I pulled the plug and it was fouled bad other spark plugs looked fine, did a compression check on all the cylinders everything it within spec. I checked the Air-Oil separator and the diaphragm seemed fine. Kinda stumped right now.
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Worst comes to worse if anyone knows of any good shops in the Baltimore, MD area would be great.
I thought my diaphragm was ok too until further and much closer inspection. It had a hairline split that was barely noticeable. Lifted off manifold cover and intake valves were a horror story of sludge. I bought the car like this, unfortunately. Discovered 4 valves weren't seating. Cleaned intake valves as best I could. Installed a $14 oil can separator and within 2 weeks 2 valves re-seated themselves. The suction is crazy on these engines, but that's why they are so powerful.
rzmnco, did you ever figure out your issues, my #4 and #8 plugs a more fouled than the rest, and its running a bit rough.
Curious what the vacuum should be on the 4.5 and 4.8 turbos?
