Have had my 914 for a couple of weeks now. It's a stock 1.7. It's in the garage getting a few little details taken care of but I need your collective wisdom. The car starts at the touch of the key. It idles at about 2 grand and once its' warm and I drive off it surges all the time. The car has sat for quite a while so I put fresh gas in and some gas dryer. The PO says it ran ok a couple of years ago. He had 18 cars and probably didn't pay much attention. I have been checking all the vacum hoses and they look ok but can't tell for sure if there are leaks.

Yeah what Andy said.
Mine had a similar problem after doing most of the stuff on Andy's list. A new TPS solved the problem. Would still be wise to go over and check your FI as much as possible For a some reading on the subject check out - Brad Anders Djet info It can be overwhelming at first, just keep referring to it and it will help in understanding the system. |
