914World.com _ 914World Garage _ get something working, and two stop working

Posted by: bd1308 Dec 4 2006, 04:16 PM

I get my mix nailed down with L-Jet. Awesome. Runs perfectly and runs 290F temps in the winter (320F going uphill).

My horn stopped working and now my speedometer cable broke somewhere.

And my throttle cable broke too.

New cables on the way (Clutch replaced not too long ago)

:/

isnt that how the car lets you know the mixture is correct, a visual alert (speedo) and an audio alert (horn)?

Before I bought a speedo cable (they rarely break), I'd sure look at the angle drive at the tranny end. The Cap'n

Yeah it broke and it spun (freely) around and kinked the cable pretty badly.

More new stuff not to worry about for the next 30yrs.

Well maybe when you get a second job, you can afford more parts so that more stuff breaks so you can get another job to buy more parts so that more stuff breaks.........................................................................................

Once you replace it all at the same time, you can drive it for a while.

(just think how well you can troubleshoot it once it runs and drives well)

Enjoy your break between terms/semesters (whatever they call them these days). You don't get those once you graduate and get a real job.
