I've seen this ad on craigslist (Los Angeles) offering 914 help. Just wondering if this person Brian is a member here. Looking for some local help with my car but not going to spend $250 for a Porsche mechanic to just inspect it.
https://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/cto/d...6416309419.html I need someone to recheck my valve adjustment, timing, dizzy and to bring a working MPS. I'm pretty sure I've screwed all this up as my 1.7l won't turn over now. |

FINALLY! FINALLY! FINALLY! Got her running! It was the freaking cheap MR. Gasket Fuel Pump that was the culprit. Man, you guys don't even know how happy I am to finally have acceleration now.
The previous fuel pump always primed and since the idle sounded great I never checked the voltage at the pump. Replaced all the vacuum lines, installed new TPS(914rubber), cleaned and gapped dizzy points, cleaned injectors, switched mps unit, cleaned up wiring harness, fixed bad ground points, inspected cylinder head sensor, replaced AAR hose(914rubber) with all the same effect. Just installed new Bosch pump ordered from Rock Auto and BAM! Rev City!!! |
