Okay,
for those who don't know, I bought a '71 914 1.7 from the original owner. It runs great but I am in the process of getting it up to date. To make a long story longer, I am replacing the soft lines. What it the trick to getting to the soft line as it comes down from the hardline that comes from the splitter? I got the side off that goes to the hard line that fits up to the wheel. I just cannot see, fit a wrench in, or turn anything in the space provided to get that collapsed rubber line off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I searched with no success. Any help you can give would be MUCH appreciated. |

The trick is to cut the rubber hose off at the union. Use a deep well 14mm (if I recall) socket to spin it off from below. Use the flare wrench on the 11mm hard line fitting to hold it in place.
One of the worst jobs on a 914. |
