Wonder of wonders, my local dealership claims they work on 914s. It's Baker Porsche/Mercedes/Infiniti/Rover in Charleston (anyone know them at all?). I'm thinking of having the clutch replaced and someone more knowledgable than myself set the valves. Thoughts? Do I need the value size jar of Vaseline for the reaming I'll get?
