I just bought the furniture dolly and with the help of PP's article, I'm going to go pull the engine out of the 914 in my avatar. Never done this before, should be interesting. Gonna give the engine a breeze through to look for anything questionable, maybe swap it with a 1.8l that I was going to put into my beetle, install a working alternator that I just won on the bay, and go from there. I'm finally done with school, don't have a job yet but once I obtain one (hopefully, anyone want an EE/ME?) I am going to try to start as late as I can. With any luck I'll be able to get this 914 in solid shape in the time that I have free. Just a fair warning that questions may be pouring in from here on out.
Ahhh, a summer filled with no responsibilities and working on my 914, can it get any better? -Chris |

QUOTE(type11969 @ May 30 2004, 12:41 PM) can it get any better? yes! "while you're at it" you will find many more "little" things you want to do to the car, "improvements" and such, and pretty soon, this one "summer of love" will turn into 2 or 3 or 4 summer of "she's still sitting on jackstands, but i swear i will have her ready for next spring!" ...
