Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2001 996 has been sitting for 5 months(with battery tender). What is the best starting procedure? Simply get in and turn the key as usual?

POST 2Original post

Long periods of time I take the fuel pump relay out. This way I crank it to prime oil all the way to cams ,tensioners and lifters. Probably 10-15 secs. Put relay back and go. Check air on tires

POST 4Original post

My 911 sits for 5 months (or more) every winter. When the snow finally goes i just turn the key. Has started fine every year for the last 10 years.

POST 5Original post

M96 engines have a lot of hydraulic pressurized components. This way my first start is smoother and doesn't sound like a diesel w marbles running around I'm not a mechanic. I follow advice from my master mechanic

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Faverymi is it hard to get to the relay?.. drivers foot well correct?

POST 7Original post

Yes. foot well. Sometimes they are a little too snug

POST 9Original post

My 996 can set for a month or two without starting it. The night before I know I am going to take it out I put the charger on at 2 amps. Kinda of like you do the tender. No problems. I put 40 lbs in the tires because they will get flat spots sitting in your garage and you will notice it while driving until the tires warm up. Other than that. Nothing else.
