So because I care more about driving my 914 than fixing issues with a leaking engine I decided to buy a 1.8L. I mean why not. So it runs and doesn't run perfect, but sounds pretty ok. I barely got through my last dark magic djet battle. This is an all new animal. This has most likely been asked before, but I have never come across it. IS there a listing of all the seals, hoses, frog powder dust, that I need to purchase to do a complete tune up of this old girl? When I perform a tune up it usually consists of cap, rotor, plugs, wires, oil, valve adjustment, and timing. I never touch any seals or vac hoses, but it seems like this should be done. Help me please with a list of "definite replace these" items. Oh and it's a 75 1.8L.
Thanks team! |

Remember:
- Ignition problems are easy to misdiagnose as fuel injection problems. Make sure your ignition system is working properly before you start checking the FI system. - L-jet haaaaaaates vacuum leaks. Since the crankcase is (at least in 74s) tied into the vacuum system, this means you need good seals on non-obvious stuff like the oil filler cap! That's in addition to all of the regular vacuum leak sources. --DD |
