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 |

Bingo!
I scribed the position at the start, before removing. It had never been off the car before. After cleaning, I then put it back precisely in the same position. No joy. Same issue. I then took your excellent advice, and moved it clockwise very slightly, and now I don’t get an hesitation whatsoever. Big thank you all for your expert advice. Such a great and friendly forum. So much appreciated. Gary |
