Nige Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Guess maybe the Renault and DMC PRV versions ran different fuel systems, CIS, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcarrera Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/bosch-671335.htm Would seem to be for any Douvrin based V6 from late 80s to mid 90s ..........l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Type911 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 There are many companies out there listing them, they wont have them, they wont be able to get them, the one in that link admits to no stock (Bosch 0280160215) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very surprised if the items in Nige's original Volvo link were not Bosch original spec items - vendor probably just not switched onto the fact that residual 11 showing in stock at £130 might be worth quite a lot more if pitched as Porsche 911/928 spec items.

Nige Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Must be some UK Volvo specialists having these knocking about. Must have been 10000s of 2.8 Volvos running in the UK in the 80s and 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChesterJLampwick Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 I was looking to replace mine, after it was suggested as a possible culprit for my difficult hot starting in (rare) hot weather, but it looks like I won't be doing that any time soon! If anyone finds a source keep us posted, it looks like one for the Porsche Classic wishlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorscheApostle Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 From memory 3.2 carreras run a fuel pressure damper inline on the fuel system to mitigate the pulse of the non sequential fuel injection. Personally unless you absolutely knew there was an issue with your regulator, IE you took fuel pressure at idle and you had decent vac. I'd suggest cracking the unions. Cleaning the mating faces and lightly lubing the the threads. That way if you needed to change it the process would be easier come the future.

R2D2 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 How many on here have had a confirmed fail of these units? Very few I'd wager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJ Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I did ! and it was a b*stard job to find out it was that and then replace whilst the engine was in-situ even Porsche worldly-wise mechanics were amazed it was that part which failed. Pretty rare apparently...but does happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
