My 914, if I drive it awhile, especially on the highway, will slowly get hotter and hotter. I was wondering what the easiest way to check if the flaps/thermostat were working. I can get to the top of the linkage, but does anyone know of a good way to prop it open? I was going to prop it open, go on a long drive and then see if the engine ran cooler...
Any ideas for testing it? |

This thread of mine shows what I found when I pulled the tin off my motor. You may have a similar condition. Notice the high level of debris around the number 5 sparkplug. Uhh... wait a second... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
