i have a crazy ass question...
can i put in a larger fuel tank? what about if i took out my one (bled it for sure!) then torched the side that faces forward and got another 914 tank did they same thing to it then welded them pack together made sure they were sealed and pressure tested it and put it back in? would the fuel pump handle all that? would i need to change me front suspension? ...or does this sound like an all together bad idea? |

I would check your dwell and timing, and make sure the vaccuum advance/retard connections are all good......
that helps MPG out..... the answer is maximizing usage of 16 gallons, not welding two tanks together...... b |
