The mechanical rev-limiting rotor on my 914-6 2.7 is starting to fail. Not sure if sitting around for the 8 months did it in or just getting old?
For the stock 2.7 dist, I thought it was the Bosch 04033 non-limit rotor that could replace it? Can anyone help confirm that? I don't need a rev-limit rotor. https://www2.cip1.com/bos-04033/ Sort of thought the 04033 fit a ton of applications. |

Yes, should fit with no trouble. It is rare a rev limiter would fail. Just a weighted spring to short out a selected speed.

My suggestion is to use a cleaner like Deoxit to clean the limiter mechanism and contacts. My question to the OP is: how is it that you know it's failing? What's it doing? |
