I drove my 1974 1.8 briefly after sitting for two months in the winter. It drove fine for the mile or so. I went to drive it the next day and didn't get too far before it chugged, jerked and then died. Had it towed back to my house. Inspected all the vacuum hoses, electrical connections and cleaned the air flow sensor and plug. Starts for a few seconds at times and then dies. Other times it won't even start. Had new plugs, points and fuel filter installed about 10 months ago. I can hear the hum of the fuel pump, so I don't think it's that. Mechanic can't see it for two weeks and I would like to get it running. I would appreciate hearing from the 914 community about similar issues. Thanks.
