In the quest for a perfect running 914 im getting oh so close. In the past I have replaced the tps with a new one that fixed the severe bucking/hesitation. The car ran so much better after that. What I am trying to figure out now is a random hesitation/hiccup that happens mostly during steady throttle when I am cruising on a highway. If I drive 30 miles it might happen once or twice. It seems pretty minor compared to the bucking I was having with the old tps. If I recall it has had this hesitation since I have owned the car for the last 3 years. I know the distributor does have a pertronix module in it. Ive recently changed replaced a few things listed below but still have that little hiccup. What would you guys investigate next?
Replaced: Fuel pump/filter Installed SS lines plugs, wires, rotor, (cap still looked new) tps sensor |

We've recently problem solved the following: Good idle but no power above 3500 rpms. Went through all the components. Solved with a new set of trigger points. Old trigger point pick ups were too worn to work properly.
But then, the minute the engine got warm/ hot, it would just stop running. Removed the computer and the insides smelled of burnt electrical. A fellow 914world enthusiast lent us a computer and the problem was solved. Green pea is now running sweeeet! Good luck and just go down the check lists, item by item. |
