Tail Shifter Clinic

I am hosting a 914 tail shifter transmission clinic at my home on Sunday, 7/20, at 8:00 a.m. If you plan to attend you must RSVP I want to be sure we have enough to eat and drink.

Join in or just watch the local 914 gurus solve this transmissions vagueness and the unwillingness to select all the gears all the time.

Yep, let's see if we can get all gears.

We'll be there. This is another great chance to see what is involved with making a poor tranny into a great (?) one. All the 914 drivers in SD should attend.....

You classify Red Beard as a "driver"?

He may not be a hell of a driver, but James put the 'goo' in guru.

(that may not have come out quite right, or did it?)

Hmmmmm

Goo?

Ted's Car is now road running. I need to get the pictures from the photographer (John Rogers), but the linkage was definitely out of alignment.

Next, tuned the 36mm Dells.

Then, after the fuel pump died, replaced the fuel pump

Run up and down the street, and the cluth was dragging. A little adjustment and the car is actually running very well. It needs a bunch of TLC, but it is certainly worth resurrecting.
