I'm honored that a couple of the great guys on this club , Dave Darling, & Mr Bleyseng would comment on this post.
Dave I have gotten so much out of the work you have contributed to the 914, I wouldn't be at this point without your efforts. I remember your post about possible future unemployment & wanted to call & say no one with your talent will be down long. Their loss! Hope eveything is OK. Geoff I've really appreciated the things you've posted on the D-Jet & MPS, pretty please can we get together & you can take a look & maybe let me know how things look? Miles go Fuck a Goat!!

It's been awhile since my last update, two AAA tows, numerous little incidents with relability .... but I've almost got it whipped!
Recently it won't start without a little shot of starter fluid when it's been sitting overnight. When the engine is warm it fires right up. New points, coil, trigger points, cht. Still giving me grief ! Some pictures of my progress. A couple of friends helping me figure out this cold start problem, ones a PHD works at Boeing , use to own bugs, the other travels the world fixing German Injection Molding machines. If these two can't help me I'm screwed. Attached image(s) |

I wish I would have had this pictures when I took off the Targa pad. These little screws were hard to find when you don't know what your looking for.

DLO914,
She is definately not a car nut. She is borderline hating me & this machine but the cash bleeding has slowed so she just tries to ignore the both of us. |

I put these little spacers on the screws when I put it back on, thinking of the next guy so he doesn't have to fish around like I did.

Bought these new door panels on a shopping spree from Craig of Camp 914, I think I'm going to put my originals back on because these don't match quite as nice. I was just trying to get a way from the speakers someone had added.
