1970, 914-6, 93K miles - excellent shape, very minor rust
I will post to this thread occasionally as I move through this project, I have asked for guidance and received many good thoughts from this team - thank you 914World I am in the midst of removing the engine and transmission. All original. There is oil everywhere, not flowing but seeping - seems that the valve covers are not tightened or have loosened with age. Here are the first pics: On the rack - hopefully not for long:  Shift Assembly is very clean, no wear, bushings are in good shape but all of them will be replaced    Heat exchangers have no holes in the pipes that I could find, the surrounding tin has been treated with anti-rust leakage - perhaps this was the plan in Stuttgart?    No plans to change the exhaust system - any guidance as to cleaning or preservation? All comments and guidance appreciated - engine coming down on Friday |

Thanks for sharing. You might consider a jack adapter for safely removing the engine. There are a variety of home made ways to do it. I am going to buy this when it comes time to install our freshly rebuilt engine. |
