Was it the dreaded hot start problem?

If so, have you relocated the fuel pump up front up behind the steering rack cover, out of the hot engine bay yet?

....or you can continue supporting the tow truck drivers' employment continuation act in TN! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

All 70-74 owners whether 1.7, 1.8 or 2.0 should be moving your FPs up front ASAP - & put an end to all this mania! That's why Porsche moved the FP in 75-76 MYs & issued their FSB for the FP relo in 70-74 914s about that same time (after their earlier "wrap the FP in foil FSB didn't work).

BTW - I too like your mode;l rearrangement, but save the towing for other problems than FP/vaopr lock/hot start problems. ....or you can keep replacing parts around the known issue instead, if you prefer! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
