Which kinda gas should I run in my 914?
should I use lead additives or just run premium in it? or just run regular (crosses fingers) This is really irrelevant, seeing as it's going to be a long time before she's on the road....but just thought I'd ask thanks! |

with the carbs, i found the idle increased when i dropped down to mid-grade a few years back. in addition to the idle speed screws, the idle a/f mixture had to be reset as well.

With carbs changing octane I swear throws my shit off. I'm working it back down to regular. I only put 5 gals in on last fillup because my pickup is leaking. anyone got a source for the fiber washer that goes between the tank and the strainer? WE NEEDS THEM! MY PRECIOUSSSSS.... |
