Yep, Jeff, master of all things 914! Jeff and Dan should have it sorted out pretty quick once we have the correct points. then a little tuning and drive it home. That is after you give her a bath James.

Awesome. I can't wait. I know I need to wash her off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Thanks for all the help guys. Wish I could have been there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Even with the super cool duct taped dist-cap, we still noted a pretty strong spark. It'll light off when some decent fuel gets put back in the tank. That was about the most oder-less fuel I think I've ever smelled. It was one step away from being water.

Good thing I noticed was the tank still seemed perfectly clean, no rust. I'm glad this 914 made it back to local ground, I forgot how cool it is.

Yeah that fuel is freaking old. I need to drain it out. Sounds like you guys got a lot of work done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

These are usually not planned very far in advance. Best to just keep on eye on this thread. When someone wants to get together with the gang, people will start posting about it.

I wish I could have been there to help. I know a lot about bad gas.

After the transmission in my teener lost 1st and reverse gears at the track on Friday, a few of the idle jets clogged up. It was tough getting the poor car up on the trailer with no first gear and only running on 3 or four cylinders.

I keep forgetting to top off the gas tank before winter. condensation seems to be a lot greater with the new gas formulations.

It's tough for me to find time to join the gang this time of year.

See you all in about three weeks.

Cheers,

Eddie

My Beast has not been running in a while, I've been thinking something's broke, when I get on it... it kicks and sputters and backfires.... I was thinking stuck or bent valve. I even responded about bad gas to a guy on the forum here to check his gas in one of the other threads.....
Can't believe I haven't checked my own gas!
Yes... the ethanol sucks, and as much as many of our cars sit.... we should seek out a station that sells pure gas. Here is the list for WA.

I called the one in Gig Harbor and the price is about $.10 more than the other stations.
I'm going to the garage.............

Yeah, she noted I was eye-balling the orange six. One 914 is enough for us.

The big question is, did you find a dizzy that wasn't held together with duct tape?

Don't be eyeing my teener! She isn't going to be for sale! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)
Jon-I will repay you for the beer and gas. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
