So because I care more about driving my 914 than fixing issues with a leaking engine I decided to buy a 1.8L. I mean why not. So it runs and doesn't run perfect, but sounds pretty ok. I barely got through my last dark magic djet battle. This is an all new animal. This has most likely been asked before, but I have never come across it. IS there a listing of all the seals, hoses, frog powder dust, that I need to purchase to do a complete tune up of this old girl? When I perform a tune up it usually consists of cap, rotor, plugs, wires, oil, valve adjustment, and timing. I never touch any seals or vac hoses, but it seems like this should be done. Help me please with a list of "definite replace these" items. Oh and it's a 75 1.8L.

Thanks team!

hey @nditiz1

thanks
you bloody beaudy! (in aus-lish) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

thats fantastic.

i see its a 920

there are two circular plates on the bottom of the engine sump.
one is on the front end (fan end).
is that a plate for an oil temp guage sensor connection that takes the electrical wire?
or is the plain type which just has a bump in it and no capacity for a temp sensor?

you got yourself a 49 state engine.
and it looks pretty intact with all the components there.
what state they are in is another matter.
but the photos are good.

a few other members can pipe in now and give you some opinions.

your intake plenum looks a bit suss, but you would know all that yourself.
i assume you got an aircleaner/afm/intake boot and ECU with that and are just not in photos.
