Hey all;
New 914 owner here. Just got a '71 1.7 with no compression in cyl #3. Popped the valve cover and there is a broken spring. Anyone tried to replace this with the engine in? Got a manual that only addresses the situation where the engine in on the bench. Thanks all, hope the BBQ is going well. Matthew. |

Pull the tube partway out (it slides in through the head!) and tilt the inboard end down. You should be able to slide it out at that point, together with the pushrod.
