Your going to have a rough time parting out cars! Just kidding..
Don't forget to drain the trans before you pull that selector. |

I have this fantasy view of the world where all nuts/bolts are fresh and shiny. This 914 is bringing me back to reality! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I looked underneath my 997 and was admiring the cleanliness of it all...and then I looked under this 914. It's amazing what a 30 year difference (1976 vs, 2006) in automotive technology looks like! I found a thread where someone else pulled the transmision selector....I guess they got a gear oil bath.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I'll be draining the transmission for sure. |

Bill , be sure to get the FILL plug out also , if you drain it , you have to fill it back up. Them plugs can be a PITA sometimes. Good Luck .

If one s working on old cars or other implements of destruction a set of reverse twist drill bits is a good investment.....$nap On sells some. I bought a set 10-12 years back but have only used a few sizes maybe 5-6 times.
Sometimes (seldom) the offending bolt/stud/whatever backs out while drilling. I can see a cone screw being the ideal candidate for these drills. |
