My buddy Dean just called and he is having some troubles in the Oakland area in his 914. It now -sounds- like a cable wrap problem, but if it is, it's been that way for over a year and just acting up.
His throttle return spring also popped, so his car was over reving.
He has never had to deal with the cables before, so if somebody is close and could help him....
I did give him Mueller's and Brad's numbers. I know Brad is way up north, but if he is still stuck tomorrow he might be able to drive it up to you (on cruise control...).
If anybody can help him, his cell is 1-626-482-0234. If you see him, you will be rewarding seeing one of the nicest 1.7s you have ever seen with a sweeet Caddy pearl white paint job.
Thanks,
