914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Help, What are these tool's for??

Posted by: Thomas J Bliznik Oct 29 2004, 01:43 PM

These tool's were given to me (free) by a business client. He said his father used to own some kind of Porsche (didn't know what model).

Any one know if they are valuable or used on a 914?

I believe those are 914/6 tools... used for oil line removal, adjusting the fan belt, etc.

If you have no need for them... I might be interested.

The small open end one with the three hex holes is for adjusting folding closet doors. I have several in different sizes....

The threaded eye bolt is a tow hook.. screws into a threaded hole that's behind the plug on the left side of the rear bumper. (on early cars, not sure if late plastic bumpered cars have it or not)

huh.gif Loosening lug nuts, tow hoop (my BMW has one of those loops), tire keys (looks like what I use on my bicycle tires only bigger and steel wink.gif ) and wrenches to loosen bolts

Rod and cylinders on the left are for tire lug nuts. You the put the round bar through the holes in the cylinder to create a handle, although the ones I've seen in the past have a longer bar for more leverage.

Arent the rod and cylinders actually for spark plugs. Used to have one just like them for the lawnmower.

agree.gif With Lawrence.

Some of them came with the 914/4, but only a few of them. This is from a 914/6.

GTeener is probably trying to set me up for a cheap sale.

I forgot to say they were made in Western Germany by Heyco (Chrom-Vanadium). The two that look like shoe horns is tough one to figure out??

Lawrence contact me & let me know what you want.

The "shoe horns" look like tire irons used to pry a tire from the rim. You need at least two.

Posted by: GWN7 Oct 29 2004, 02:46 PM

The tire wrenchs look a little small. The only one's I have used were a lot longer. About 2' long. You need leverage to get the tire bead over the rim. The one's shown look more like for bycycle tires.

I'm just playing the guessing game. I'm not a mechanic. I pay attention to the guys that are biggrin.gif

Those two "shoe horns" are exactly the size for bike tires.

This one is for tightening and removing older style bicycle cranks.

Doesn't the Six crank pulley (or fan pulley) use a tool like that when you want to replace the belt?

The smaller tubular one may also be useable for removing the CHT sensor in an injected four-banger. If the interior of the hex is 13mm, at least.
