I just can't shake it, the 914-bug! I've tried to finish, left for years, came back, tried to sell her and now just want to get her running - does this sound familiar to anyone out there? I am sure it does.
I need some help from the forum, I want to breath some life into an engine that ran for 5-MINUTES 5-YEARS ago. I have taken the gas tank out, painted, treated and in the process of R&R the fuel line with SS line. I will be replacing the gas filter / sock and possibly the gas tank nipple to ensure I get an uncontaminated fuel system up front. I will R&R all gas lines into the dual 40IDF Webbers as well and anything associated with the fuel lines. Question: What must I do to prep the engine guts before I attempt to start her? This engine is a virgin and like I mentioned earlier on - it only ran for 5-MINUTES. Thanks, Fern (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
