A few days ago my friend's 2L 914 had all the seals in the engine replaced because it was leaking. Now it makes a kind of a sputter sound when reved over 1000 rpms and doesn't accelerate very quickly. It still has the original fuel injection. Any advice greatly appreciated.

check all your hoses for proper connection. here is brad a's site to diagnose your fi.

Sounds like a vacuum leak.. but your description isnt the greatest (ha ha )

Do you have a digital camera ??

What seals were replaced? If you did a pushrod seal job, I'd re-check the valves...

Whatever work you did perform before this change would be the first thing to check to find a possible problem, obviously.

Thanks for the replies, I'll see if he wants to work on it later today. I have a digital camera.

Update: He's going to talk with th shop that put in new seals.... I'll tell you how it goes.
