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 |

Here are the pictures I promised, first, here is the model stamps of the carb
![]() there is some question as to the originality of the carbs - according to Carl at Klassic Automotive Training School, there is a stamp on every carb that goes through the Porsche Factory, it should be right here: ![]() He talks about this and much more in one of his videos, all of which are very informative, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3qwIbRdcvE&t=60s Inside is very clean, stained in a few places, but clean. Floats are in perfect shape, did not use compressed air to clean them.....grin ![]() ![]() ![]() When I opened the gasket seemed new and the interfaces were very clean. Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

..................Continued.................
Inside of the carb is very clean, here are a few examples. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Question is where to start on a carb that seems to be in very good shape but needs to have all of the adjustments made.....????
