Update on the 914 project. Pulled the battery several weeks back. The battery tray is pretty rusty as expected. The battery that was in there was decades old, but luckily hadn't leaked any. Will post a pic later.
Got a new battery and hooked it up today. All of the lights turn on and function as they should. Pop up headlights work. Pulled the plugs a few weeks ago and put some lube in the cylinders in case they were seized. Turned the key this evening and the motor turns over freely, just turns very slow.
When removing the plugs my dad found that one of them was cross threaded. Have any of you had any experience with this? The spark plug in question is different than the other three plugs. Three are from 1974 and the fourth is 1976. Any thoughts on why the PO may have had just one plug changed?
