Okay, this is my first post so please be gentle. As of 5 days ago I am the proud owner of a white 73 2.0 914. I bought it from a family friend. It was love at first sight for me and the car, since I was a kid I wanted one and now that I am 42 that feeling never went away. The car has not been driven in over 8 years. It is original. So where do I start or should I say my mechanic start? I live in the Twin Cities area so my plan is for this to be my summertime daily driver.
Thanks for the advice. Stephen |

Welcome!
change oil, prime engine by cranking w/o fuel or spark check fuel lines, probably replace since they've been sitting, and if the tank has fuel in it drain it and get some fresh stuff in there new brake fluid and inspect the brake system never hurts to go ahead and put in a new air filter and plugs, wires, inspect the cap and rotor basically a good tuneup with a really thorough inspection |
