Wondering what this would have plugged into it. Looks like it's a ground of some sort and looks stock? Anyone have a clue? 1973 914 2.0

In the 70s and 80s when the engines started running poorly in these cars they would take it out and just throw a rebuilt engine in. Less than a days work. Then the shop would rebuild the one they took out and throw it in something else. The numbers on the case don't really mean very much other than that was originally in a 2.0. But, who knows what is in the case now. There were a whole lot of these cases produced. They weren't considered anything special for many years. Shops back then were just about getting the car back on the road. Not purity so much.
2.0s and 1.7s have different parts in the case. Connecting rods and crank and cam shaft. 2.0s also have a windage tray. Hopefully you have 2.0 parts in the case. Your fuel injection is from a 1.7. Any time you see a connector like this one that is just attached to the fan shroud and engine case and transmission and chassis, it's just a ground. |
