 help to find the dongle for the 914.

Early 914 engines (up to 441 7848) need a dongle to allow a PC to talk
to the turbo control unit.  Later engines do not need it.  This is
necessary to allow the throttle to be correctly set etc.  If you have an
early 914 engines you will need the dongle rarely but it is essential
when you do need it.  One of Club members need the use of a dongle
urgently.

In the past, Europa maintained a dongle for hire (against a security
deposit).  Unfortunately this has gone missing about the time of the EML
collapse.  To make matters worse it now appears that the Dongle
(Monitoring Set  Part No. 966 670) can no longer be purchased.

If someone is hanging on to the Europa dongle, on the basis that they
will never get the deposit back from EML, please consider selling it on
the Club so that it can be made available to all via the tool loan
scheme.

So please

1) If you are a 914 owner check that it is not left on a shelf some
were, 

2) If you know a 914 owner, who may not monitor this form, please ask
them to do the same.

3) If you have a privately owned Dongle please consider either selling
it on to the Club or running a private loan scheme to help your fellow
Europa owners.
