Looks like your making good progress. Is that a Fuel Pump?

Has to be a fuel pump.

You do have grommets for those holes, right?

I pulled a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) grommet out of place when tugging on a fuel line Saturday. Gonna be a bitch getting it back in with the hose in place. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) See ya in Mammoth! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm not pulling on those hoses for that very reason.

It's Eaton Aeroquip hose, and it's pretty tough.

I ran a stock starter with my 2.7. No problems. After going to a 3.2, I sold the car and Otto's installed some beafy starter in it. I have all the receipts. I will find out what he installed.
I'm running an optima battery. I jury rigged a battery maintainer for it through the cigarette lighter. I heard the odyssey? batteries are better. Lots of threads on this if you do a search.

Just get the bosch SR68X starter. It will turn your engine over no problem.

Flat six soon to be started! Warning- Big grins from ear to ear are in your near future! I've driven lots of cars, but not much compares to a 914-6 (so far).

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That beefy Bosch SR68X also won't eat your flywheel ring gear....I scored one from Amazon with no core required!!!

I'm pretty much at the point where I'm going to list the whole project for sale. I'm over it. Too much disappointment and frustration.

I don't think I can finish this thing, maybe someone else wants to take a shot? I'll probably part this mess out.


You needed to come ride with me at WCR. Or, put on one of those wet suits I see hanging in your garage and go surf it out. Heck, I'd have let you drive it. Once you've driven a six, you are spoiled for anything else. (apologies to the Type IV guys, you don't know what you're missing). Fly on up to Reno and you can stay at my place. We'll go drive mine around Lake Tahoe. If you still feel like giving up after that, you probably should...
