Looking for recommendations.
The motor on my matching numbers '73 2.0 is leaking in multiple places. The shop I take it to for servicing is recommending a rebuild (to reseal it). The motor runs strong - no issues, but they are telling me all the leaks will eventually cause issues (on top of making my garage floor look nasty. The shop cannot do the rebuild until Jan (too backed up) and honestly, I would like to take it (or send it) to someone who specializes in 914 rebuilds. I'm located in Northern Virginia (just over the bridge from D.C.). Thanks in advance for your recommendations. |

Consider this.
Test the leak down first. If it’s ok, it’s simple and less than a day to remove and replace the following. Push rod tube seals Oil cooler seals Oil sump plate gaskets Valve cover gaskets (have them adjust the valves too) Oil pressure sensor That covers the most likely suspects of leaks I ordered up this kit of parts from 914rubber That may stop all the major leaks |
