The PO had a single carb on when I bought my 74’ 1.8 914 and said he had uneven idle problems with the L-jet injection so he preceded to remove all components and box everything up. So now I’m feeling I want to reinstall the injection and put it back to stock. I have some mechanical ability and patience, though I was never able to get that gas smelling carb to run right. Was looking for someone I could pay for a few hours to kinda orientate me on the location of the box of injection parts I have and give me thoughts on what parts I might be missing and how difficult and expensive it will be to put everything back. I’m in Puyallup WA south hill area, Thanks In advance

i encourage you to do it.
its a primal system. first time install in the world in a car of L jet (but maybe simultaneous with vw 412 but all in the family). beat SAAB and those eager smug do gooder swedes. bring it back. inspect that part # on the flow meter connected to the air cleaner. Bosch etc 001. says it all. crack a beer after you do it and let me know. i'll rip the top of a can down here. |

Has been sold in the USA, too. Regards Norbert |
