Just incase you haven't seen my post on this in the resource section, I have been diagramming the sub systems of the 914 little by little. So for I have the dreaded, "WTF, my fuel pump stoped working, fuse blew!" circuit, and the headlight motor and lighting circuit.
See them here; http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...t=0#entry275027 Now, lavish me with praise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) ( I even did some under the influence, those are the ones that will be found to be wrong, if any, later) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) |

Good looking diagrams Dr Evil!
Joe Leoni has put together a complete book of diagrams like this for each 356 model, and they are invaluable. It comes in a nicely done 3 ring bider and each page is laminated so it can be removed and taken out "into the field" without worrying about smudges or tearing. I know this may be getting way ahead of the program, but do you have any intentions about doing something like the 356 books?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Being the entrepreneur Mike is, I would bet you just gave him some ideas. I can see it now...........
For $79.95 you too could own an invaluable tool for working on the electrical on your own 914. Buy it now! Quantities are limited, if you buy now, you will get a free.......... |

I sure have thought about a book. $79.95 is a lot though (?). After the 16th of Dec I will likely start to get organized on this. If I do a book they willbe even better drawings with indepth descriptions (in plain english) of systems, and common faults. Kinda like a flow chart set if; if x then y. If anyone is interested I will be glad to start a list of people if they PM me. It would be nice to know how many to make right away. Y'all know that I will do my best to keep my prices low. I imagine somewhere around $45-40 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Does that sound right? It depends on how much it costs to laminate each page, ink, blah, blah.

Since we all have computers... why not just sell a PDF of your diagrams and let us all print them on our own? Less hassle/headache for you... and more personalized for us?

Carlos,
I was thinking the same thing. I remember my girlfriend bought an E-book on ebay for like $10. Sure cuts down on production cost. I would likely offer both, or maybe even a disk. |
