So I'm pretty new to this Porsche stuff, and I'm looking at this page from AA, and it doesn't show any L-jet FI. I've always thought that what I have in my 1975 1.8. So here are a couple of pics, what is this?
And what's up with this page from AA: http://www.autoatlanta.com/model/914catalo...ne-numbers.html Are they nuts??? DT Attached image(s) ![]() |

No, not really. They would have had only a quarter of the required fuel then. And they dipped the tanks twice, Toronto and Ottawa. But their conversion from volume to weight was incorrect by half. Basically the difference between lbs and kg (2.2 lbs / kg). It would not have mattered except the electronic guage was malfunctioning. The mechanics sent from Winnipeg also ran out of fuel before reaching Gimli. It was a million dollar fixup before it flew again. |
