Hey, here's a stupid question. Anyone know where I can get a "GOOD" 1973 2.0 throttle positioner. I've developed that cursed bucking just off idle during slow acceleration but the rest of the power band is fine. I've cleaned up the circuit board as best I can and a new board may fix my problem but I'm not sure the contacts are all that great either so I'd just as soon replace the whole relay. Yeah, yeah, I know. put a carb on it. Just trying to stay as original as possible.

A stroke of luck last night. I was fortunate enough to meet a group of 914 owners who had come to Palm Springs for a cruise event. Within minutes of arriving a couple of F.I. gurus produced a vacuum gauge and determined the source of my problem was a failing diaphragm in the MPS. Not the best news but fixable. I'm pretty sure the diagnosis was correct since the car ran considerably worse after the vacuum stress test. So I'll be on the phone Monday morning in search of a replacement part. Just want to say thanks to all in the group. A real blessing to have all this knowledge in one spot.
