Sometimes, nothing happens when I turn the ignition switch. Usually, this is after the car has been running for some time, but sometimes it happens after starting the car after running for an extend

Sounds like the ignition switch, but it could be any of your other guesses too. When you turn the ignition switch do the accessory lights come on? If not, definitely the switch. Do you hear a faint clicking noise (the spark plugs igniting)? If so, it could be starter or the solenoid. It oculd also be the switch that allows the engine to start because the clutch is depressed (or the car is in park). if that switch is bad the car won't start because it thinks its in gear. Also be sure your battery is in good shape. It could be that after a short trip the battery isn't charging enough to start the car. You can test this easily next time it happens by checking voltage across the battery. It needs to be at least 12 volts. Anything less and the car probably won't start.

Engine running hot

As these are air cooled engines first check the fan is working and the ducting to the cylinders is in place . Check the oil as well.

Hi my porsche 911 triptronic will not turn over,

You need air, fuel, and spark for your engine to run. Did the car do anything strange before not starting? Does it crank and turn over? If so, you should check you are getting fuel. Check the fuel pump relay and fuel pump.

1983 Porsche 911SC - How do I fit Rear Seatbelts

Hi Rick, I think you should talk to your local porsche dealer and ask them for a diagram of the structure of the vehicle and then you can figure out where to fix the belt. Did you buy a genuine seat belt or an after market one?
