Just put in a cht for my '75 914 2.0L engine. After driving it 60 miles, the next day I tried to start engine and NO GO! So I just grounded out the F.I. harness cht lead and drove home.
I pull the cht and tested it and there is infinite resistant. I just ordered 2 cht from 914rubber. I hope they have engineered their cht sensor and not rebadged uro sh*t. Is there any way that the D-jet caused the cht to go bad? Do you think I can get my money back from parts geeks since I just bought it last week. Buck |

You've heard of "POS". Well, now there's FOS: "Failed on Shelf"
Yep, it's a thing. I've had a bunch of work done on my BMW E9 and just had a brand new driveshaft center bearing fail in less than 1000 miles. I was talking with the shop about this sort of thing and they can list example after example of issues: - "New" alternators are failing at install - Bosch spark plugs, specifically those made in Russia are crap. (No politics here, just stating what's happening with certain parts from certain mfg locations.) - electronics parts? Same thing. Our supply chains are f'd up, lowest cost manufacturers are getting the contracts and serious Q/C seems to be a thing of the past. Rant over... |
