Is it common for a 914 to roll when turned off , parked on a very shallow slope when in gear without parking brake on? Cllutch seems ok in basic driving . Is it the oft hypothesized low compression? Car starts and runs great so there should be reasonable compression.,when very hot the engine does smoke some so maybe it needs rings or more . Anyhow , Trying to estimate if the rolling car is a worn clutch or low compression. Guess I should see if engine is turning when it rolls . Any info on the topic appreciated !
