Your title, "Picked up 1st 914, 74 2.0", is probably a harbinger of more to come. You only have one first, but that usually means more will follow. Welcome to the madness...there's no known cure. |

Replacing all the hoses and lines. Trust nothing. Find one of our vetted vacuum diagrams and be sure your lines are going where they are actually supposed to go. Save yourself a ton of frustration. It's had 50 years of DAPOs messing around with it. |

Something tells me you may have an addiction when you buy a 914 and call it your first. Many here have or had multiple 914s. Welcome to the madness. |
