QUOTE(r_towle @ May 13 2016, 10:23 PM)  Brad is not just a good mechanic but a great friend to the 914 community. He could have sold you a new motor.... I had my two buddies with me, one who would opt for the new motor and one who says leave well-enough alone. Anyway, I think Brad and Michael are a bit relieved because they are just sooooo busy! Brad is the best. Paul |

Looks like the Dual Relay had a faulty connection. Unplugged it, replugged it and the car runs great.
However, the engine harness is brittle as heck so a better used one is being installed. I have no idea why it seemed to be simply related to the amount of time the car was running. Guess it wasn't after all! Paul |
