I am new to this board, and have a question that I haven't found answered in searching the forum. I have owned my 914 for about 7 months, and love it. It is my daily driver. It is a '74 1.7L (does that seem right?). The PO had installed a progressive carb. I bought the car with a box of FI parts. I think most/all are there, but don't know if they work. The carb is giving me fits in the mornings. How do I test the box of FI parts I have before putting them on the car? It looks to be the appropriate D-jet injection for the 1.7L. I would like to have the FI working before winter.
Thanks in advance for your help |

Sorry I am so slow to respond. I will take a picture of the FI parts I have by the weekend. I appreciate the help. By the way, my VIN is 4742912108, manufactured 01/74, with and engine number EA065956. I have been lead to believe the engine is 1.7L based on the number (I checked in the Haynes manual, though they could be wrong). Also, the script on the back of the car says 1.7. If it didn't come that way, someone must have really wanted to change it.
Thanks again for the help, Bill |
