There are many additional tools for the Porsche 914/6 cars and Sportomatic transaxles

which are not included here because they do not apply to the Porsche 914/4.

 

Photos and information shown below are from:

the factory Porsche 914 repair manual,

the 1998 Porsche Specialized Tools catalog,

Clymers and Haynes manuals and a few other sources.

 

Some of the tools are no longer available (NLA).
