Hi Everyone. I'm playing around with my 74 2.0 liter trying to get it to run a little better. It "bucks" occasionally so I was looking at the TPS yesterday. I couldn't get the TPS off to open it up,I think there may be locktite on the screws and I was afraid to really reef on it!! But I did try the 20 click test,but I heard no clicks. None!! What does this mean? Is the TPS not functioning at all? What would that do for driveability? I don't have much frame of reference as this is my first 914, but the car does seem to exhibit the ususal TPS problems. That is...it bucks, and the acceleration is sluggish.
Any and all comments really appreciated!!!
Cheers
Mike

I have mine unplugged now and it runs better. I would rather have it functional, so where can I get a new circuit board for a '72 1.7L?

Thanks!
