Hi Everyone,

RE: 1972 914 1.7L

Just wanted to get you all's thoughts on an issue I'm having. Here's my observations:

1. When cruising (not accelerating or decelerating) the car skips and almost feels like it is cutting off. It doesn't matter the speed.
2. It accelerates fine and when decelerating it is fine.
3. I replaced the ignition wires, plugs and coil last weekend. No improvement.
4. I had electronic ignition put in about a year and a half ago. Not sure if that could be the culprit.

Any help/thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I had the same situation awhile ago and I replaced throttle position sensor board. Problem solved.
