I did some playing around with the auxiliary air valve this weekend. I watched a video of a guy with a sticky valve diagnosing it by putting it in a freezer and a toaster oven to simulate the low + high temps that would make the valve inside open/close. I followed his steps and my valve does not move at all regardless of temp, it’s just stuck partially open no matter what.
The part # on the aux air valve I pulled from my car is 0 280 140 114.
The part # I am finding for what should be in a 1976-1978 240 is # 0 280 140 100.
I have gone ahead and ordered a remanufactured part with the part # ending in 100.
What really is the difference between these if anything? I see Bosch aux air valves for Porsches, Audis, alfas and volvos that all look exactly the same with only slightly different part numbers…
