Lack of a running 914 is not considered a valid reason for non-attendance at RRC. (triple negative sentence?)

Posted by: JRust Jun 29 2014, 12:16 PM

Posted by: JStroud Jun 29 2014, 10:51 PM

Actually I don't know for sure yet, I haven't had time to tear into it. Mark is guessing burnt exhuast valve based on the symptoms. I did get the exhaust pulled the other day and found this.



Thats from under 1000 miles of driving, the rest of the exhaust valves looked fairly normal except one was wet with oil.

Got my tractor tore apart now for some new rings, parts come in next week. So a couple more weeks and I'll have it done, then I'll pull the motor and start the tear down.



We'll see once its apart.

Hotel room is booked.

I called and they asked the arrival date and I said 9/12. The next thing they asked was "Are you with the Porsche Club?". I said "Yes Sir". and SHE said I am a ma'am.. Just a word of warning.

Not sure if I have posted here yet, but I'm planning on coming for the GJ event and Moab (although I may camp instead of staying at the hotel). Hopefully I'll be in the 914, but there is an outside chance I'll be in the S2000.

If you're referring to the Gateway auto museum, Eric Lowe told me the road between Gateway and Moab is unfortunately extremely crappy. On Friday, we plan to take I-70 to hwy 128. 128 is a great drive. There's an auto museum in GJ, though....

If I had a significant number that wanted to go, perhaps I could call and see if they could open a little early for a special occasion....

She is flying out to Oregon about a week before. So I get to spend time with her & then drive her home on my way. So my trip is still justified as I need to take her home .

I know this should be in Classifieds - but I thought if someone coming to RRC had one I could grab it from them?

I just converted to 5 lug on the red car and now I need a spare.

I currently have 16" wheels - but I think 15" would be fine with a similar height tire. Space saver would be awesome...

Anybody got one?

I wish I knew you were in town - and of course my house is your house whether I am in town or not. You might enjoy the house sitter we have lined up - young college student (is Val reading this? )

Please don't go out of your way. I will probably be fine as I put new tires on the car last week.

I am home all day Wednesday - maybe if time works out we can grab lunch - maybe the club where we had the awards dinner on your way out of town even.

Nice, I may have to swing by Monday then!

No worries, it isn't out of my way at all. I was hoping to see you guys while I was in town anyways. Although the club may shoot holes in my work truck.....

Not looking good for me, finally got my fuel lines fixed. Went to turn the key today....no power to the fuel pump

Not sure why this is an issue was working fine, didn't mess with the electrical except hook it to the new pump. Car electrical and myself don't get along, checked everything I can think of and nothing. Unless my ignition switch just happen to go out I'm stumped.

Don't have a relay board, pump relay is wired directly off a switched power source at the fuse panel, relay is under the dash, pump in front trunk.

I'm kinda running out of time, was hoping to start the loaner motor today, then see what I needed to do, kinda hard to start it with no fuel.

Sucks I've got two more days off, then next weekend... And I'm dead in the water now.

Like I said, not looking good

Just tow it there anyway. Somebody there is bound to make easy work out of it. I've heard of some other really smart teeners doing this . Of course as an added bonus if it never get's off the trailer it can't break mid trip either

Well got the fuel pump working, McMark called me, on his day off...what a guy, he walked me through a couple steps.... Turns out my relay went out, wired the pump direct and it worked....but now I have another fuel leak shouldn't take long to take care of that in the morning, it's time to start I'm tired.

Hopefully then I can turn the key and have something happen....the silence is getting painful

Just a few things to button up then a few short drives to check things out, still need to take it by original customs next Sunday for some carb fine tuning, ( I don't do carbs, they don't like me) then should be good to go....with two whole days to spare.

Sooooo looks like.....see you there!

Salt Lake City Way Point

Gang, Nikki and I will be heading out Friday AM for Moab.

That said, the pad is always available for crashing and a BBQ for those passing through doing the Grand Junction full cruise or the Moab Friday Saturday thing.

We have the Guest Room and a fold out couch in the theater room. We also have the trailer which can be parked in the driveway and can be made available to sleep another 6 if needed.



Let me know the plans and I can start gathering the grub and refreshments.

For those attending the RRC. I installed 1.7 stainless steel heat exchangers on Sandy's 2.0. Why? Because it's what I had. I went to install the rear valance panel and discovered the one I have either must be for a 2.0 or the muffler I used is an odd ball or I need a 1.7 part. The tail pipe exits slightly to the right of the valance cut out. Are the 1.7 and 2.0 cut outs different?

If they are I think I need a 1.7 Valance. Anyone coming to the event have one they can sell me? The car looks incomplete without it.

I also need a couple license plate lights if anyone has a couple they want to bring.

Rick, I'm pretty sure all the valances are the same (for the -4's). You need a 1.7 muffler/hanger now to get the tailpipe in the right spot.

Rick - does the valance have a notch or a hole? If a hole (referred to as "snowplows") there were two different ones. There was the one for a /6 and a different one for an early /4. The holes were slightly off from one another.

Might be able to by-pass mess by going to Lake Mead and back up to I-15 via Overtone on north end of the Lake. But also might add 2 hours to drive.

LA to Moab via I-40 adds about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Not sure how to do it if you start in Las Vegas. JP?

It may have been a lake, but it didn't wash the asphalt off the dirt.

That's the area of the Virgin River Canyon and it's 2 ft below flood stage.

Jim (stratplayer) also offered to lend me his 914 since he can't make it. I debated but I can't pass up driving a 914 to the event. I've been to a few without & it's still fun. Just nicer when your in a 914. So I hope to be showing in a 914 even. Huge thanks to Jim for trusting me to borrow his ride. I'm a little nervous anytime I drive a fellow 914 owners car. Not that I'll break it but just the possibility someone might run into me. Or some random crazy thing. Anyway I can't wait to get there. See you all soon

Posted by: VegasRacer Sep 9 2014, 10:38 PM

It looks like I can take Hwy 93 to 318/56 and pick up the Interstate in Cedar City.
That would add 2 hours on a good day. I expect it will take twice that long now.
I don't see any better options to drive to Grand Junction on Thursday.

Edit: The local news just had a report on the flooding and said it is a 7 hour drive from Vegas to Cedar City.
I am afraid I am going to have to bail this time.
