I bought this car a couple months ago, and wrestling with problems that I expected, and some I didn't expect.
Dyno shop got a noticeable performance improvement by reaming out the main jets. We played with the timing curve a little bit also. Unfortunately the clutch is contaminated or something and sometimes interfered with torque readings. Now that I've read more about 2366 longevity, I'm not sure I'd opt for it. It sounds great and pulls harder than I'm used to in a 914 though. |

I noticed you have an additional oil cooler, if you remove these copper pieces that are blocking the air from exiting the fan shroud, your stock oil cooler will work properly. Trust me I've made this mistake before. That air has to escape out the bottom of the shroud (heater ports) for the cooling system to work properly.

Trust me I've made this mistake before. That air has to escape out the bottom of the shroud (heater ports) for the cooling system to work properly. Yes, the car came from the San Jose CA area with a front oil cooler and those sealed shroud ducts. Maybe PO wouldn't have needed to add the oil cooler if he'd left those ducts open? For two months here in Seattle the problem has been getting oil temperature up though. I've got that white milky condensation under the oil filler cap. The air thermostat appears to reflect the correct cold position. I haven't found a way to test that the air flaps are actually closed with the tin on. |
