Hi all,
I've been scouring 914 world for help on getting a new-to-me '74 1.8l running. I've reviewed Auto Atlanta's informative video on the 914 fuse & wiring and I think I follow the gist but may have missed things. I've also studied the simplified diagrams on Pelican Parts which have been helpful to understand the 914 layout. What I've done: 1. new battery 2. new ground strap straight to the transmission bolt in the rear of the engine bay 3. cleaned battery connections 4. cleaned the fuse panel When I turn the key the only thing I can see working is the marker lights and the clock. So no fuel pump, no start, etc. Can you all point me to a few areas to tackle first to determine the culprit(s)? |
