Hey Jaime,
Save yourself the greif & just move the fuel pump up under the fuel tank behind the steering rack cover as the Porsche Tech Bulletin advised since about 74-ish. AA sells a kit with the parts, or you can collect the parts yourself, or have a shop who knows 914s near you do it. I did mine back in `77 after having to wait a couple of ours at the Blythe Denney's in 115 heat on the way to the River to water ski. Got back, told my guy Hans what happened, & he knew right away what it was & what to do (he was factory trained on 914's when the first came out & he was still at Circle Porsche in Long Beach). Good Luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
