I'm new to 914s so I was hopeing for a little help. Bought the car a couple months ago and it run great until now. I haven't been driving it because I'm in Wisconsin and had some things to work on to get it ready for spring. I've been disconecting the battery and have restarted the car three or four times in the last few months. A couple days ago though, it started fine, I let it idle for about ten minutes, then blipped the throttle a couple times and after returning to idle, quit running.

Where should I start?
Thanks, Steve

I should add, it still turns over fine, it won't fire up at all though.

That would be good info to include, it's a 2.0 with fuel injection, 74

I'll check the gas too, thanks
