We have collected info and photos of the engine tin codes on various 914s, but the info is incomplete. The meaning of the codes is a mystery and you can help figure it out! Please review the list of info we have to date and compare it to the markings on your tin. If your code is not on the list please post a photo of the marking and a photo of the emission label found above the drivers side relay plate. We especially need data from the 1975-76 914s and any that are missing from the earlier years, or better photos of any of the codes we have to date. You'll get kudos for your contributions on the webpage.
The data we have so far is under Group E on my PLM page found here: http://members.rennlist.com/914_collectibles/PLM.htm We need photos like these two: THANKS! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) Attached image(s) |

Here's the sticker and number stamp for my late '76 (November '75), 476 290 3357, GC 006324:
I didn't take out the air hose so the dang thing broke off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Managed t get the remaining hose pushed onto the plastic tube and tighten it down, thankfully. Anyone have those new? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) By the way, the response I received so far from my earlier posts on this issue and from my website (see http://www.type4.org/technology/engine_markings_html) are slim. I have received a few emails: - a 1974 2.0 (474 290 5898) with GB engine: 620 - a 1974 1.7 (VIN 473 291 5357, engine 078064, no engine code given): 610 ... and a couple 411/412-owners who had "022.3" stamps. |
