I'd like to give a hearty greeting to all my new friends here.
My father purchased a new silver 1.7 in the summer of 1973, and owned it until the early nineties. I was trolling Craigslist Friday, and ran across a '73 for sale. She's in rough shape from a front-end collision, but remarkably rust-free (for a 914) and otherwise pretty complete. The seller wanted a few hundred for the car, so I figured, "what the heck?", bought it and had it flatbedded to the shop this evening. I'll give a lengthier intro with more photos tomorrow, but for tonight, I have a question - The following photos are from this car's engine bay. Is this a 2-liter engine? The badging is for a 1.7, but from the information/descriptions I can find, this appears to be a 2.0. I've not had a chance to vacuum the dust to find if the engine # is between the case and the oil fill tube (2.0) or on the upper right rear (1.7). Also, the ECU is not located next to the battery, but in the front-middle of the firewall. Many Thanks, Carl ![]() ![]() |

Welcome. Looks like you have plenty of cleaning to do! I'll suggest you post your city, so the folks in Your neighborhood can offer to help. Some us actually like to get our hands dirty and it looks like you have a virgin car that hasn't been touched in quite a few years.
