The best tune up kit for it is a .357 magnum at close range. That really opens up the jets;)

Had one years ago on a 1.7 I used to own.....the best kit for it is to "overhaul" it to the bank of a lake and give it the "float test".......if it sinks....walk away.....

The diff between a dfev and dfav is the type of choke. One is electric and the other uses water temp. These may not be great on our Porsche's but they are awesome on small engines with water cooled intake manifolds.
