One other time 20 years later in the same 914 I was just cruising along and the engine died. No restart. One thing for sure, it was not that stupid interlock. I pulled way over, and popped the engine compartment lid. I noticed the head temp sensor wire was broken. I had recently changed the spark plugs, and I guess I stressed it somehow. I whipped out my pocket knife, scraped back some of the insulation, twisted the wire together, and carefully started it. I drove right back home and put electrical tape on it, and called the local independent Porsche shop and they had one in stock!
I had to cut up a 10mm deep socket to get the new one back in place tight.
