(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sadly, I spotted on an IG site called "onlyinglendale". Their latest reel has a late model red 914 with painted sails and 4 lug Fuchs burning down on Brand Blvd.
Anyone on here know about the car or the owner? Car looked to be nicely painted and well maintained, appearance wise except for the 3' flames coming out of the engine bay and the interior. |

On a more serious note, is there a readily available fuel line hose other than gates??
I just had to tighten a loose fuel line clamp, can’t remember what brand line I used, but had fixed/ replaced it about 2 years ago, loosened over time, and I don t drive the car much, few time s a year. I Did use FI type clamps. |

I Did use FI type clamps. Any SAE J30R9 rated hose should be fine. You can use SAE J30R7 for carbed applications. In theory that would also work for stock 914 FI since it runs at well under 50PSI. But I prefer to use the R9 hose for any FI applications. Does not have to be Gates brand. The SAE specific rating qualifies it for use with ethanol fuels. Zach |
