1975 Opel EFI - Auxiliary Air Valve

Gordy · 12-01-2008

It may help you to know that the 1975 Opel efi's Auxiliary Air Valve (fast idle valve) Bosch part #028140104 is the exact same part used on the 1981 Audi 5000, 5000S, and 5000 Turbo models. It also is listed for some Alfa Romeo models of that same era. Some parts suppliers do not list Opel but will have Audi listed and you can track down that part that way. Just FYI. Gordy

Some of the online parts houses have a handy "where used" feature for
parts that helps in cross referencing.
Here is the one I often use on Advance's site. Click "see all vehicles this part fit's".
While we find your parts, please enter your ZIP Code at PartsAmerica.com
In this case it's a Python brand aux air valve for our '75's.

and that's a super price there Mark. Audi wanted $178 and another site wanted $135. Advance Autos price of $68 +core is reasonable for sure!
