Went to start the 914 a couple of days ago and noticed that the fuel pump sounded a little weak, didn't seem to run consistently when key turned. Car started, then died (as if it ran out of gas). Then would not start again. Cranked, but would not fire.
Luckily it was in the barn and not far away from home. Went to push it out of the way last night (to get it on the lift) and it started right up. Damnit! I'd rather it stayed broken. It starts consistently now - even though the fuel pump still sounds weak. So now I can't trust it to drive it anywhere for fear it'll not start somewhere far away. Gonna check/replace the fuel pump and filter. Any other thoughts from the collective knowledge base? |
