914World.com _ 914World Garage _ 71 Superbeetle in trade for bodywork...

Posted by: timmcgraw67 Apr 5 2006, 11:49 AM

My mom's getting pissed cause she can't use the garage... Too much junk and 2 projects... the 914 and the superbeetle. I have current registration on the beetle and I bought it with the 1600 dual port rebuilt. the car won't kick over. one day it started running wierd and then I get off the freeway and as soon as I get to idle speed it dies. couldn't get it started since. Well back to the 914 I need some of the rust taken care of, and a paint job.... I had a friend that was supposed to take it to a shop and never did. If anyone is interested Help Me Please... I'm dying to see what a 914 can do off Muholland Dr or the 2 through angeles crest. Hell my truck can do 75-95MPH through angeles crest LOL.

Thanx
Kenneth

i had that exact thing happen to me, turned out I forgot to grease the distributor shaft and the point block wore way down to zero.
