Porsche 944 – Rebuild That Transaxle! – Part 1

In the automotive field, a transaxle is a major mechanical component that combines the functionality of the transmission, the differential, and associated components of the driven axle into one integrated assembly. Front-engine, rear-wheel drive vehicles tend to have the transmission up front just after the engine, but sometimes a front engine drives a rear-mounted transaxle. This is generally done for reasons of weight distribution, and is therefore common on sports cars. Another advantage is that as the driveshaft spins at engine speed, it only has to endure the torque of the engine, instead of that torque multiplied by the 1st gear ratio.

Porsche 944 – Gas Tank Removal FAIL

In order to remove the gas tank, you have to remove the transaxle. This video is a continuation from that process. I removed the fuel filter, fuel pump, fill tube and vent hoses, and also removed both straps and both mounting bolts. However, because my exhaust is rusted and won’t come out, I was unable to get the gas tank to drop out. Meh. FAIL.
