Hi all,
Iv just put a battery on my new 914 to try and identify a fuel leak as declared by the previous owner. Im guessing a test with low compressed air and carbon cleaner shouldn't leave bubbles coming from the plug terminals or from around the yellow cap/ metal housing? Thanks Nathan |

Operating pressure is 32psi. They should handle 60 for test purposes. |

Thanks for clarification, unfortunately I have all 4 injectors leaking, not something I was expecting when the previous owner had the injectors rebuilt and only had around a thousand miles on them. Just found the starter is seized solid too! After some work I had it firing out but the motor won't turn |
