I took the 914 out for it’s first real run of spring. About 2 miles from home it starts missing and is clearly intermittently loosing a cylinder. I stop for gas and it’s getting worse. It’s last years gas in the car and I’m having flashback of carbs and jets clogging over the winter.
Fill up with gas and check the plug wires. Number 3 wasn’t seated all the way. Proceeded to drive the car without a hitch for the rest of the morning. Man I love it when it’s easy. Zach |

Don’t feel bad, I had taken mine out after installing the 123 Distributor and was not liking it at all. Thought I just really needed to work on the tune. When I got home, I figured something else must be up and there it was, plug wire for #4 hanging overboard. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
Running much better, thank you... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |
