914World.com _ 914World Garage _ I'm a happy camper again!

Well, after two months of farting around, I decided to take my car to a pro.
It's alive again!

The problem was nothing I could not have found, but it was worth the money!!
Apparently the #2 intake valve backed out its adjuster so the nut fell off!
Fotunately this is a flat four, so the nut did not interfere with anything critical, and
I am now running again!! Boy, it feels good!

I also fixed the "fuel pump running all the time" problem, and probably the missing
that I experienced on the way home from California. The "camlike thingie" on the
airflow sensor hit the fuel pump contact and forced the fuel pump off at certain
manifold pressures!

Now I am back to the issues we all experience: inspection, registration,
tires, little broken bits, etc, etc, etc! Lots left to do....

Thanks to all who helped me with these problems! I learned a lot (more than
I wanted!)!!!

Gee Jeff, isn't this your second teener? And it's only the begining of this one.
