Here's another detail from a '70/4.......pardon the non-concours presentation but it is original.....this is on the engine sheetmetal, driver's side. Anyone know the significance of these markings?

Someone MUST know what these markings mean & which apply to which engine. I know there are many variations & know what mine were originally (long gone), but what were they?

By the way Paul - you need new cheesheads.

The photo in the first posted picture is mine. I think I put in on the forum a long time back for...I don't remember what. It is from my 72 1.7. I have kept it as stock as possible over the years. The relay to help the starter out on hot days (mounted on the left sidewall) is about the only thing that is not original to a 1.7 engine bay. Every vacuum hose even goes where it is supposed to!

Love the concours section. I don't get on here enough to see what's going on. Good stuff!

I refinished the bay and engine. 1972 1.7 in a 1973 car. The white intakes are the wrong color, but everything else is correct. The hangers for the air tubes are custom. Helps keep them off the engine.

Have to say that is a clean motor top. The white intake tubes, though not orig, are kinda nice. The air tubes are all wrong though. Not talking about the hangers, but the tube material - not correct. Nice, nevertheless!

mrhutrtlot.
Yes - two ways - and you'll hurtalot either way!

Method one - remove motor/trans. 2 hour cleanup from inside the bay (on jack stands). Do not use cleaning fluids that will render you duh or huh? Don't need them with contemporary chemicals, though I'd still wear a respirator. Really easy w/the motor out.

Method two - motor in. Lots more difficult, but can be done. Foremost, get a set of el-cheapo kneepads, and wear latex or rubber gloves. Why, becauseas you dig into the engine compartment you'll use your knees for bracing. Without the kneepads you'll make compression dents in the quarters. It's amazing what you can reach if you're not afraid of hurting the car, so dig in. First, remove everything removable (you didn't say what year your 914 was). Air filter, etc. Clean them separately. Then just tak some clean terry rags & start dgging for goo - you'll find plenty. Unless you're barely over 5 feet tall (like SOME people I know) you should be able to reach every cranny in there. After you've mopped up the really loose stuff, go back with another set of cloths lightly soaked in something like SimpleGreen or 409 (no solvents). Wipe until you come up with nothing. Take another fresh set of cloths (terry preferred) & do it again. I know it's simplistic sounding, but you need to reach into every fore/aft & side areas to do this - takes lots of rags & the wife will REALLY bitch when you throw them into the washer (trust me!). If you're forttunate, you'll have slim fingers to get under thigs like the induction tubes. If you're even MORE fortunate, you'll get your significant other involved to do this - they DO have very tiny fingers, that can get into places we gorillas cannot. Just be certain that the significant other realizes the daintiness of 914 bodywork - best to ask them to wear the kneepads & nothing else, so they don't hurt the bodywork. Worked ONCE for me - wish I'd taken pictures....or not.

Not even close to original (though nice). Verbotten on this forum.

To be deleted shortly, unless someone can give a reason not to.
