Help, I'm stuck on side of road with no start.
Took 914 2.0 out a few days ago. Ran great but once she got hot I started noticing some bucking on acceleration. Went home, next day did a short run and all seemed fine. Took her out today, it's hot out. Running great. A few miles from home I stop at traffic light. Uh oh, engine died. Turn key and it cranks but no fuel, spark or something. Just swapped out coil with a new one in trunk. Just have basic tools with me. Any help or ideas appreciated. For example, how do I know if fuel pump is running? Thanks. Mike |
