-figure out interior light & license plate light

You can get all the love you need right here, I have learned on my own and then came here when I just could'nt hang without help. Take one issue at a time and you will get help, I will pitch in and others with more experience than me will too. I do not help unless I have done it myself and other here have done it all// joe

first and always mention your year of car engine size ect. every time you have a question on a fix.

just noticed your not new!! ooops! huh I would come over but your on the wrong coast..

Not new? this is my first 914.
i am worried about workin on this.
that is why i would like some company.

Use the search tool here on the site. All of this stuff has been covered many times and in great detail. For the valve adjustment look up Krusty's write-up in the classic threads forum.

And...


Wait, I see you're already a 'member' here. This is your first 914 though?

Better post a picture!

Steve, I told you to post a picture of you with your car when it arrived!!!

Dont make me beat you too it and post the ones I took here in Socal

LOL.
i was busy.. almost as soon as it got here i had to start getting the kid ready for halloween.
and today we are going to hollywood studios.
maybe Monday i will be able to get some pictures.

yes my first 914.
and i learn better by doing, i read Krusty's write up.
AND now i am even more positive i would like to have someone there with me to help and teach me.
especially with the fact this needs to be done every 3000 miles or so.
anyone in CFL or surrounding wanna help a newbie?

UGH! i just mostly broke the back pad passenger hook.
i really could use some help.
anyone available next week... anytime?

ANYONE?

I'm in daytona, and I've done quite a few valve adjusts since my '14 is my daily driver about to hit 100k mi.

I've done pretty much everything on your list, except the fuel injection stuff (I have dual carbs). I could help out next weekend if there was some involved....pm me.

of course there will be
and maybe a little
hopefully no
