23 Years ago when I decided to replace the 4 cylinder in my 914 because it started making lots of noises it shouldn't have ...fast fwd about 6 years ago I decided to sell the Webers carbs that were on it. When I removed them to clean before i put them on eBay I noticed a nut missing and pulling apart the engine I found the NUT!!
