Hey Guys,

Still new to the 914 life. Anxious to start driving this summer. I can't get my 914 to start to save my life. Turns out, it looks to be the fuel pump. The one I have on it is not the correct one. Pelican Parts offers 3 different ones. Mine has the d-jet system from what I can tell. Can you tell me which fuel pump I need to get or get from another site?

Thanks,
Jason

I wonder if the toggle switch was a cheap anti-theft device? The fuel pump you bought would be appropriate for a carbureted engine but not for fuel injected engines.

Those zip ties are scary!

Possibly the switch was for that but it was right out in the open. I figured it was turning something on. I know one thing, the regulator plate did not have #3 relay in the 2nd fuse area closest to the relays in it but it still started so somewhere something got bypassed. The 25amp fuse was in the second fuse holder which I read is for the heater fan and fuel pump. The first appears to be a non used or for an extra from what I have read.

Pelican Parts doesn''t offer a Fuel injected fuel pump from what I see.

I found this one on Ebay? I am guessing it will do the trick.
