So.... Bought a 123injection distributor from tangerineracing and installed it nice and easy. Started it up to set the timing and I hear this weird slurping noise.

That nearly irreplaceable hose that goes from the block to the remote oil pressure sender had finally given out.

Chris is trying to find the appropriate fittings to replace it.


Also, chasing a vacuum leak around the intake on cylinder 4. Just replaced the spacer a month ago and really was careful with the blue gas safe sealer etc. The injector seals are all new. Spraying very carefully it really does appear to be the area near the spacer. Any tips and tricks?


Nobody would ever suspect a 914 is behind that door...

Yup, air cooled VW/Porsche owner lives there. All his time is spent on the car, no time to paint garage door. Just like me. Best, Mark

I don't know what you are talking about. I bought my garage door from Beverly Hills Car Club, it just has light surface rust. It only fell off the garage a few times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
