Good morning, I wonder if someone has any insight… 1967 912 been dormant at all winter, ran perfect when stored. Tried to start it now, I get no ignition lights or fuel pump (have an electric pump installed) but no crank… All lights, accessory's work, battery is new and fully charged is there a main fuse somewhere or is this a ground strap issue? Thanks in advance for any advice

 

Kinda tough to decipher what you mean here... "I get no ignition lights or fuel pump - but no crank"

Do you mean you are getting normal function but no crank? And by "crank" do you mean the starter will not spin the engine?

How about this... Tell me - if you turn the key - does anything happen. And if something is happening, tell me what. (what light comes on, hear a click or thud).

I am pretty old school. Turn the key on, spray a bit of fuel in the carbs, & then try to push start the car. If it fires ~ then it is probable that you have a starter problem.

 

Hello, don't mean to hijack your post but I'm looking into a 912 that starts and dies if you give it gas.
Similar circumstances storage wise but it does start after owner installed new battery. I'm going to go check it out in a few days and wanted guidance as to what are some of the things I can look at. Also does anyone have a procedure to adjust the idle. Thanks in advance.
