914World.com _ 914World Garage _ 914 D-jet fuel injection mechanic SF bay?

Posted by: Sm914650 Oct 15 2018, 04:56 PM

Hi all, I have a beautiful 73 914. It has all the options, being factory tint, appearance package, low miles..front and rear sway bars sitting in the truck to install this winter. Only issue im having, is my Djet fuel injection is having a ton of issues. I am spitting fuel from exhaust, flooding all the time, and aside from the car clearly running rich the idle is extremely rough most of the time, and also is spitting oil from the exhaust. Ive dealt with all the local guys that I know, and although they are some of the smartest 914 guys around, they dont know the Djet fuel injection troubleshooting like some may. I also replaced all 4 injectors with original Bosch injectors. Still having isssues.

Im looking for a mechanic who knows how to deal with the Djets, and more importantly has the time to diagnose the issues. Im located on the peninsula in SF bay, but willing to travel in CA. This car is amazing besides the current issues..would be great to clean up.
Thanks look forward to hearing from yall. If theres no one who can help in person, would willingly take any advice on here.

Because you are on the peninsula, I second the suggestion for Rich Bontempi at HPH in Redwood City.

Or if you are so inclined, study the D-Jet system yourself and DIY. Its not that challenging and most components and functionality can be easily diagnosed.
