1970 914-6 all stock
All, I am down to the last thing for this engine re-fresh: CARBS They seem to be in very good condition and since they are missing the Porsche factory mark I am guessing that they were 'cored' on a rebuild sometime prior to my ownership OR Are 914-6 carbs NOT market like 911 carbs are??????? Anyway, I have not gone too deep since they are in great shape - the gaskets seem good, the floats are the brass kind but in perfect shape, the bowls are very clean,,,,,, Can I get some direction on: 1. what to look for in a recently rebuilt carb 2. where is a good reference for setup prior to installation Any other opinions would be well received, Thank you Teeners YES I KNOW (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thisthreadisworthlesswithoutpics.gif) Pictures will be added later |

Have look @ the carbs you have and look for tell tail signs of fastener and the brass gallery plug wear which is a good indicator they have been apart . Problem is folks pull them apart with crappy old tools . See how you go ,cheers. |
