POSTED THIS ON PELICAN ALSO:
Recently acquired a 1974 914 with a 2.0 and a single Weber swapped onto it. It had a decent miss and first thing i did was replace (not related to miss) plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Carb was taken off cleaned up and reassembled (good friend did it, knows Webers TOO well) got it all buttoned back up an restarted this afternoon. The miss it still has sounds more like a vacuum leak or the timing is that far off. Could someone shed some light on the big major areas where vacuum leaks could occur? Is the connection from the intake tubes to the engine tin a bad place for leaks? Also what is the procedure for timing this car? Thanks for all the help. Joe Attached image(s) |
