Post by: sKrEwBaLL on 08 January 2004, 10:43: If so, whats the part number for the ISV for a '89 8v digifant...?

Post by: Blue MK2 on 08 January 2004, 11:20: i have an ISV out of a later Digi car than mine. the part number is 0 35 133 455 F

dont hold me to that

Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 12:49: 89 8v digi, so I'm assuming its engine code 'PB'

Pt no is: 037 906 457 D

Boy did that take some finding......buried in the engine section.

Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 12:53: Just checked Blue Mk2's part number and that is a good number for an ISV, but not for your model......just checking what model that applies too.

Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 12:58: Found it, that part number that Blue Mk2 quoted is for the 16V one ;)
Title: Re:Anybody got ETKA..?
Post by: Blue MK2 on 08 January 2004, 14:43: so that means i was driving with a 16v ISV on my 8V. does that do any harm rich? :o

Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 14:48: Don't know what the difference is but I can't see that it would do any harm.

Post by: Blue MK2 on 08 January 2004, 14:49: I put my original one back one after i polished it up.
I havnt noticed any diffrence in running with the engine.

I was gonna sell it but its worth keeping then ;D
Title: Re:Anybody got ETKA..?
Post by: sKrEwBaLL on 08 January 2004, 14:57: Yes Rich, thats the right part number. What does the letter at the end signify? Mine is a C, but you have mentioned D, and the one I might be buying is an A..... whats that all about then?
Title: Re:Anybody got ETKA..?
Post by: oldbanga on 08 January 2004, 15:08: Stupid c... remarks aside- what is one?
Title: Re:Anybody got ETKA..?
Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 15:08: I noticed that the the 1990 and 1991 had the one with the letter C. 1989 was D

??? ???

Not sure what the difference is.......maybe a slightly different mod state ???

I'm sure if Blue Mk2 has found a 16V one to work fine then yours being a letter out isn't going to make a whole lot of difference.

Post by: richandhazel on 08 January 2004, 15:18: ISV is the Idle Stabilization Valve as fitted to the digifant and 16V models.

Post by: modulater on 10 January 2004, 21:48: The numbers at the end indicate an up dated or slighlty different part, they don't change the part number as this would be a pain in the arse so they just use a letter at the end.

Like my heater bezel is 191 919 383 A and a standard model has 191 919 383, The A in mine indicates its for aircon.

Post by: Helios_Blue_Valver on 11 January 2004, 12:22: Damn I thought mine was nice but no A/C. Kinda wish it was a 5 door as well. Car seats are easier. No coplaints though still love it. I'm thinking of importing a 90 or 91 from the U.S. sometime. Eventually I have to go back and I want to be able to take my car with me. :)
