Hi All, Long story short, I bought a 914 with two turbos strapped to the back and a Holley EFI installed. It never ran well so I decided ditch the turbos and try carbs. Prior to installing the carbs, I took a shot at adjusting the valves as I thought that might be contributing the car running rough.
Now with the carbs installed, it seems the valves in cylinder 2 are off. Lots of knocking and exhaust coming out of the cylinder 2 carbs. Is this a valve adjustment issue? Or something else like timing? Much appreciate the help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzSmoiLO8mc |
