I'm sure someone will correct any of my following information if in error; please do.
The 914, type 47 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) , was a joint project between VW, who needed a sporty car offering to replace the Karmann Ghia and a platform to use their new type IV engine, and Porsche, who needed an entry level car to replace the 912. between 1970 and 1976, about 119,000 914's were built of which about 3300 were 914-6's. the early -4 car (70-73) had a 1.7 L fuel injected motor, replaced by a 2.0 L (73-76) all using D-Jetronic EFI. a 1.8 L (74-75) was also offered which used L Jetronic EFI (the "same" system later used in 928's). so, there is a 1 paragraph start (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

i think roadglue.com also had a wiki on 914's
the docs 700 tips is a must have for any 914 owner. Also, Dave Darling has a wonderful write up on the 914's on the pelican parts site. |
