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 |

DaveP,
The badge on the door post shows: chassis # 219582 (what does this mean to you?) paint # L99A (I think, hard to read in the garage) Just a couple more questions on this mess: Is there any way to tell the displacement of a rebuilt engine? The box of parts I have are definately 1.8L FI parts. Will they work on what appears to be 1.7L? Am I sol? It appears I have all but the fuel pump. Will any of this work with the megasquirt I keep reading about? I may just roll over and go with carbs. Thanks for all the help and information. |
