This is my first time under the car (and the first time under a 914 or even a VW) so I could use a little help identifying some things.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i237.photobucket.com-17475-1403419060.1.jpg) There is an unattached cable on the right side. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i237.photobucket.com-17475-1403419060.2.jpg) There is also another unattached cable above the shifter. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i237.photobucket.com-17475-1403419060.3.jpg) The car has an ANSA exhaust. I'm not sure if these two pieces are suppose to meet. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i237.photobucket.com-17475-1403419060.4.jpg) I wonder if this hole should have something attached to it? |

There are two styles for the right side, and three for the left side.
Early on, the left-side piece bent down under the shift rod. Starting in 73 with the side-shift linkage, the piece then bent up to go over the rod. (The right side stayed the same.) When they went to the 75+ exhaust, the pieces changed shape to fit the new exhaust. The older style, as shown in your pic, has two (I think) screws that hold it onto the heat exchanger. Those go through weld-nuts on the edge of the "wrapping" part of the exchanger. There is one or two screws on the inboard edge of the tin piece that go into bosses that stick out of the side of the crankcase. Sorry, no pics handy. --DD |
