Take one issue at a time and you will get help, I will pitch in and others with more experience than me will too. I do not help unless I have done it myself and other here have done it all// joe first and always mention your year of car engine size ect. every time you have a question on a fix. just noticed your not new!! ooops! huh I would come over but your on the wrong coast.. |

just noticed your not new!! ooops! huh I would come over but your on the wrong coast.. Not new? this is my first 914. i am worried about workin on this. that is why i would like some company. Use the search tool here on the site. All of this stuff has been covered many times and in great detail. For the valve adjustment look up Krusty's write-up in the classic threads forum. And... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Wait, I see you're already a 'member' here. This is your first 914 though? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Better post a picture!

I'm in daytona, and I've done quite a few valve adjusts since my '14 is my daily driver about to hit 100k mi. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
I've done pretty much everything on your list, except the fuel injection stuff (I have dual carbs). I could help out next weekend if there was some (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) involved....pm me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
