I finally got my 914 on the road but switched to carbs to save money. The car runs rich. I have heard that the stock cam is not the perfect profile for carbs and also that the car needs to be run slightly rich to keep the engine temperature down. I have never adjusted a carb before and was wondering if I should try to lean the mixture myself or if this is better left to an expert. I recall that if an engine runs lean bad things can happen to pistons and valves.
