Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Air flow metering blade

[Michael James (cavallino_rapante]

The Bosch Parts for the 308 cross-reference with some mid/late 1980s Mercedes sedans...but who the hell is keeping one of those tanks alive?  Nobody.  Some of the even-rarer parts cross-reference with Bentley or the RR of the day, I believe - again, ZERO market.  Bosch has dropped most of the model-specific stuff at a time when everyone thought K-Jet would live forever-and-ever....folks forgot that K-Jet wasn't a one-system-for-all-cars setup, there are some VERY model-specific components in the architecture. 

 

Oh, the OEM Bosch parts lists with Bosch numbers are still available from the German website if you want to download the PDF.  Problem is, Most-Everything on the list isn't available anymore.  You can try the superceded part-number game, but the specs 'might' be off....who knows?  No one on the forums is saying when they replaced 'X' with 'Y' because 'Y' is all they could find whether things turned out alright.  Stock up now, while you can....

Richard (the Man) of Competizione told me a few weeks ago that some vintage Ferrari Bosch injector system parts are becoming almost impossible to find and oh by the way nurse those injectors Bob as they're going away too.  He suggested using BG K44 injector cleaner.  And if you want hot, try Kandahar - 105 every day.  My son's there.  Bob O.
