Title: NEEDED: Vacuum check valve (?) for 1.6TD
Post by: avocado_tom on July 24, 2006, 06:09:37 am

When I was pulling the 1.6TD from an '84 Jetta, I made the mistake of attempting to pull off a hose that led from the block to the brake booster (IIRC).  Unfortunately, the plastic port coming from the engine block broke off with it inside the hose.

I assume this is a vacuum hose and that they plastic bit was a one-way, check valve?  Does this sound right?

Does anyone have one of these they're looking to part with?

Cheers,

sounds right to me. adding your location to your profile may help in your search for a replacement  :)

cool. there seem to be a lot of dubbers in PA...maybe due to the old westmoreland factory?

re-reading your original post i'm not sure if that part is the check valve, or if you have one in-line as i do on my 1.6TD. make sure if you're having it shipped or whatever its the right part  :mrgreen:
