(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) And welcome to the insanity of 914 ownership - it's great!
I'm curious about that you already plan to switch it to carbs when you haven't gone through it yet. Yes, there are lots of carbed 914s around, but there was never a stock 914 in the U.S. with anything other than fuel injection. Once you get the vacuum lines changed and the valves adjusted the FI will probably run like a champ and give you no problem. |
