After letting my 1973 914-4 1.7L sit in my garage for 20 years i finally am trying to get it running again. Engine ran fine until I let the car sit around and battery died. it has dual Weber 32/36DFAV Carbs (but the water choke has been replaced by electric, but they are not connected). I drained the oil and fuel from the lines. Do I have to rebuild both carbs or can I somehow clean them and try to start the car? I think I need a new electric fuel pump so will replace it too.
Any suggestions on what else I should do to get it running? |
