As the title says… I only see new at AA for $537 or NOS on eBay for $500… Is that all there is? The Bosch FI specialist working on my car says the plastic part is somewhat loose inside the metal part and could lead to a fuel leak…

OK, thanks for the answers guys. The valve probably works, I was just worried about a possible leak as indicated by my mechanic. I didn't realize that it was only activated when starting up in at or below freezing temperatures. Unlilely that I'm going to start and drive the car in 0°C weather, that usually rhymes with possible salt on the roads here.
So I guess one possibility as mentioned above would be to remove it, block off the opening and cap the fuel hose that goes to it? Otherwise, I was leery of buying used or even NOS parts, and I haven't found a new one on this side of the pond from my usual suppliers, including Rose Passion etc. I will check with the Porsche dealers here next week. The repurposed normal injector idea looks fun... I think my FI guy who is a bit of a purist would hit the ceiling... |
