Drove it to Wally World early this morning to stock up before the hoards invade our small town for the eclipse. Staying home and off the road. We are having a large eclipse festival. Ten thousand presold tickets! The promoter has been asked been ask about places to have sex during eclipse! Eclipse is less than three minutes so that should work!

I would recommend both (or more)parties wear welding helmets lest festivities/activities last beyond the eclipse time.

Just a suggestion. YMMV

Enjoy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Be careful removing undercoating from ANY 914 parts ... you don't want them to rust - lol

took an evening drive after the threat of rain passed- its been HOT and humid, and before this week, threat of rain every day, actual rain 15 out of the past 20 days so finally a chance to drive after drying it out from the last storm i go caught in 3 weeks ago- leaking came from water getting past the door windows rear vertical edge and the vertical seal it cones in contact with- thst has to be adjusted somehow! until then driving only on dry days . beautiful sunset

OK, so I unlocked the driver's side door and pulled on the exterior handle ... and it's not doing what its supposed to do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

I see the interior lock lever move when I turn the key and I can open the door from the inside, but that doesn't really help much (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Thankfully I got in from the passenger's side

What's the fix? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)



In the interim, I'll be reconnecting the throttle linkage, the floorboard and the new 914 Rubber gas pedal (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

You need to remove, overhaul, repair both door latch and lock mechanisms lubricate and re-install. Best fix I can think of and they probably need it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Not hard to do. Even you could do it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

I didn't do it today, but will report it today. On Saturday, I installed 2.0l SSI exchangers and a Bursch muffler on my '75 1.8l. I would have put the 1.8 SSI exhangers on but the 1.8 muffler that i bought didn't fit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Sounds a little raspy but will have to do for now. To make the job complete, I installed all the necessary hardware and tubes to insure that the heat would work. Only problem was the plate that covers the shift rod... It hit in 1st and reverse, so I removed it.

Next project is Petronix ignition and hook up the cable from the thermostat and see what is wrong with my fog light switch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)
