If someone on the forum has an original, known complete set of hard copy Factory Service Manuals( FSM's) for the 914/914-6 please check something for me. I have two sets of FSM's. One is a photocopy of a friend's set, which he said was complete. Another set is not a photocopy, but the set of binders and actual pages from a factory set. Here's the dilema. Both sets list Sections 1 and and 3 in the front index for Group 3 Transmission. Sections 1 and 3 deal with the manual 5-speed transmission. Both of my sets do not include Sections 1 and 3, but go on to show extensive Sportomatic info as advertised in the Index. Do you have Sections 1 (1.1 and 1.2) and 3 (actually 3.1) in your complete hard copy original, complete set containing Group 3 Transmission?
If I check my microfiche version of the FSM's, it includes Sections 1 and 3. I am questioning whether it is a coincidence that both of my sets just happen to be missing these sections or did Porsche not include these with the hard copy version thinking that the Technician would/could use the 911 VOL I and II Group 3 FSM that deals with the 901 transmission. Porsche did in fact follow similar logic with some other FSM's. The 911 Volumes for the 72-83 911 were sold separate from Vols I and II, which were for the earlier 911's. Porsche advised that you needed both the early set ( Vols. I and II) to go along with the subsequent 911 set. The 944 FSM's state the the 924 FSM's should be referred to for much of the body related info. Please shed some light on this issue. Bill |
