I have many relays, sensors and electrical parts from various 914 parts cars.
My question is if these test out as being good, are they ok to use? Just asking if it might be better to buy new stuff rather than use 40year old electronics that would fail soon after being put back to use. Any thoughts or experience with this would be appreciated . Thank you |

I am not as worried about the solid state stuff as I am the relays, switches, motors.
How robust is some of this stuff? Sure it tests out on the bench and works now but after It's installed back in the car and heats up wondering about the failure rate. Thanks |
