My 914 still doesn’t start regularly. I turn the key and every time I heir the buzz my guess is the D-Jet fuel pumping and then it might start or nothing happens. Once it starts cranking it will start just fine. Here is a list of what I’ve done. What am I missing??? What could be wrong?
New battery Clean the connections on the battery New ends on the positive wires to the battery New ignition switch Clean and replaced connections on the starter solenoid Cleaned ground strap connections from tranny to trunk Kevan |

I use to have this problem all the time and still have it today. I know for mine I was cranking mine over for to long and to many times in a row and the starter gets really hot. and the life span goes down alot. But over all if you take it out and bring it to someone to test the problem may be that is drawing to many watt's away that is what my problem was then I got a new one stuck it in and it work fine for the first few days but I screwed this one up to by just over using it.
