Hello all you 914club type people. Allow me to introduce myself, I am the owner of a 74 2.0. I have had the car for about 6 years or so and about 5 of those the car has been in storage. The last year I have been bringing her up to a driveable condition and now she is my daily driver (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) I look forward to being a part of this site. Cheers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Well, a hearty welcome to the site. New blood, errrr, people is always nice. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Please post a picture of your car, either here, or in the "please post a picture of your car" thread located in the nailed section of the technical forum. Glad to have you aboard, and please ask any questions if you have them. And also start thinking about the West Coast 914 Classic coming up in June. Check out the link at the top of the page (WCC 2004 info) The more the merrier. Seattle to San Jose is a bit of a drive, but by no means impossible. Definitely something to think about.

Again welcome.

-Chris

Howdy!

Whew, I was only the new guy for a few days! I too recently signed on with these nice folks!

Take care and C-ya round!

Zaney that is the absolute worst Avatar I have ever seen. Having had a 914 burn up on me just before Thanksgiving. I get flash backs and start thinking all over again what I must have done wrong.

Sorry to hear about that Joe. However, it represents two things that excite me. FIRE and 914's! You can have one with out the other but I play with both! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I try to keep my aircooled cars clean in the fuel/ignition area and keep the fuel lines newish. But, that's me Preachin' to the Choir.

Good luck on the rebound bro! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif)

WooHoo Poulsbo!! That is close! I have a set of Fuch 5.5 x 15 four lug sitting in the garage that I am not quite sure if I am going to sell or not. If I go to the 5 lug 6 inchers they will be listed here first! As for the doors, i was gonna ask if you need some! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
We should get the other NW teeners to meet us some evening at the Whiskey Creek Steak house!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

this is a bit late to suggest this, but how 'bout meeting for coffee somewhere tomorrow? i don't have a ton of time, but i would be very interested in meeting some other 914 drivers in the area. my knowledge base is small, and i am not sure where to start.

Ok guys. The pic of the burning 914 has motivated me. Mine is down waiting for my newly revitalized MPS to arrive from Bleyseng, and as I was poking around in there the other day, I noticed that the fuel line coming up from the pump had a spot where it had worn where it rubbed against a part of the engine structure. Three questions:
1. What do you guys use for fuel lines?
2. Can I get them at my FLAPS?
3. Anything to watch for when changing them out? I assume they don't retain pressure like modern ones?
