Hey all - Please allow me to introduce myself and I'll post some pix as soon as I can. I'm a longtime PCA member and have restored a 67 911 that is still in the family....now I've gone an purchased a 73 914 1.7L Fuel Injected car in the Bay Area. It has been sitting for a bit, does not have appreciable rust, and seems in generally good shape apart from some mostly minor issues.
Question - after having been sitting for 6+ months, she fired up and ran - but a bit rough. No engine noise or knocks, but the idle is rough, it stalls at low rpms, and is pretty rough except under a good amount of throttle. I'm thinking dirty injectors at least - what is the best course of action from here?
options - add injector cleaner, good gas, run the bee-jesus out of her
option2 - get the thing to the mechanic and let him sort it out
option3 - ????
your help and guidance is appreciated - I've had great success with the lads on the Pelican Parts 911 board, and you all seem quite helpful as well as I've read thru the posts on this board. Hope to be able to contribute as well as learn...
best
tom
