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 |

guys I certainly appreciate all the help. I cleaned my FI ground connections up a bit and verified my fuel pressure ( right around 30), reinstalled my mps and then took it for a 30 mile spirited drive. Maybe its jut my head but It seemed like it did a fair bit better. It still had a time or 2 with slight hesitation going 75 on the interstate but overall i thought it did better. If it continues to behave like it did today i dont think its worth sinking much money or time investigating much further. I will further tinker with it and clean up things and see what comes of it.
thank you to all of you, nathan |
