914 addiction  Group: Members Posts: 47 Joined: 27-July 04 From: St. George, UT Member No.: 2,408  |
I just got a 914 this last week. I went to put the battery in and it started really sparking on the battery when i connected the negative. Once i had the battery in place and hooked up i turned the key to see what electrical components where working. Headlights moved and dash lights were on....but I soon smelled something coming from the engine. I quickly turned the key off and took the battery out. The smoking was coming from around the middle of the front side of the engine. It doesn't look like anything is there but i didn't have time to investigate further.
Any ideas? |
