I have been told that I need a high torque starer for my 914. It's a 1976 2.0 and it has sat for some time, five plus years. I have had the starter that I have in it now tested and they say it looks fine. The problem I have is that the starter will turn the motor with no plugs in, but if I put one in, the starter fights past the one cylinder. If I put two plugs in it kills it completely. I assume maybe its more than just the starter, so I don't know if I should purchase the high torque one yet. Any help would be appreciated. By the way I do have a new fully charged battery and new ground and positive wires. I'm getting 13.8+/- volts to the starter. I'm a real big rookie at this.
