I am a new 914 owner and have just started trying to get it road worthy. It is a '74, 1.8 liter, and fuel injected. Now for the noobie question...
After running the car around the neighborhood, I came home with a fuel leak. I found one of the hoses, leading to what I assume is one of the injectors, was split open. I replaced the hose which stopped the gas leak.
Now comes the problem... My car now fires, runs for approximately 40- 50 seconds, and then quits. It does not matter if it is just idling, or if I am giving it some juice... It just quits. I turn the key off, turn it back on and it will fire again after a couple revolutions!
Any idea why changing out the bad fuel line would cause this behavior? As you can tell, I am just learning the mechanics of the 914 so be kind and send lots of pictures (of how to resolve the problem that is )
Thanks in advance,
Brad
