Hi guys, Chris from New Zealand here....finally bought myself a 914! Shes a '73 2.0 with original FI. Had her about a week, after standing for 8 years.
Previous owner spent some time and money getting her on the road as part of the sale to me, but still a bit of work to be done! I'll try and attach a picture. Took her for a shakedown run today for about 3 hours but then she started coughing and spluttering then stalled at about 60mph. Coasted to a halt, ignition on/off and away she went again for about half an hour.. Same thing again, ignition on/off and all was well for another 20 min.. This went on and on and the intervals between spluttering and stalling got more frequent until i just about made it home. Felt like fuel rather than electrical... Could it be the fuel pump, or any other ideas? I have a feeling I'll be using the forum quite a bit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Nice to meet everyone! |

Hmmm. That cht for the fi is nla if I remember correctly. I could be wrong. For 1973 the cht also has an inline resistor (also no longer available) that was a stop gap before they came out with a new computer for the 2.0
You should test the cht first, easy to do with a multimeter. Google pbanders d-jet and you will find all the information a person might need (resistance at cold etc). If the resistor is missing, you can simply make your own (I had to on mine). |
