Revs dip on light throttle, Otherwise perfect! Options

[gturner008]

A little bit of experience and wisdom needed.

I’m new to 914 - so don’t know if this is normal for the 2.0 1976 engine.

Engine runs perfectly. Great starter. Smooth and easily revs. Very happy.

But I noticed when it’s ticking over - and I gently rest my foot on the throttle - and apply a tiny bit of pressure, the revs dip - and it almost wants to die.

Apply more pressure or quick pressure, and it picks up perfectly.

Any ideas on what might causing this? Or is it a characteristic of this engine and injection system?

Very grateful for any thoughts. Thanks. Gary

Eventful day.

Took off the TPS, got inside. Photo attached. It does not look to me to be the issue. Of course it still might - but contacts look pretty decent. Only 40k miles from new.

I rechecked all vacuum lines. All good.

Car runs like a dream. So smooth and balanced. The only tiny issue is on that featherlight throttle - revs dip.

If I put normal throttle pressure, it’s fine. No hesitation or anything.

I think I’ll let it pass, and go enjoy the car. Unless anyone has another thought or advice. Welcome any at all.

Thanks. Gary
