My 1.8 L-jet was running poorly and thanks to a member I found out the AFM connector was disconnected, yes I'm clueless about the 914. It ran better after connecting, but would not start when cold with the connector plugged in. It would start with it connected when warm. It started for a couple of days with it unplugged. After starting I would plug it back in and it ran better than it has since I got it about a year ago. I left it plugged in and tried to start without any luck. Have tried for the last couple of days, both with and without it connected. Still no start. What should I do next?
Thanks, Rick |

Thanks, where is the best place to get the switch. I called the local Porsche dealer, they can't even get one.
