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.

New gas lines asap, adj valves, clean and lube trigger points, new ign points and condenser, set dwell then timing, Vaccume/Breather/PVC all hooked up tight, Vacuume check MPS mainfold pressuer sensor, the AAR valve can be capped off for testing hell I guess Im still testing mine everyday as its in the trunk. That's enough to keep someone going a while. None of the above may fix the problem but it sure wont hurt anything!!
