We have a winner, more a case of deduction I think that actually recognising the part in this instance. But yes it's a pic from when I took a Warm Up Regulator (WUR) apart. Unfortunately when I cropped the image I over wrote the full image and can't find the original. There's not a lot inside a WUR, there's sort of a diaphragm based valve and plunger with a biometric strip that bends when a current is sent through it, as things warm up. As it bends the strip pushes against this disc and closes the valve reducing the flow of fuel through it. The theory being the car needs more fuel to get it started and while it comes up to temp.

Reply #153 – August 05, 2021, 07:34:09 PM Bugger I should have known that after running a modified one on my MK1 Campaign, cracked a few open, I thought the disc was bigger in the picture, unfortunately I have a good working knowledge of the whole KJet system after replacing a system after a MK1 filler neck decided to dump rust in the tank clogging the whole system.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #154 – August 08, 2021, 12:02:18 PM I don't know for certain if it's the only one in the car, certainly haven't come across another, but don't take that as gospel.It's (mine at any rate) is the dark green colour that it appears to be in the image.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #157 – August 08, 2021, 08:46:49 PM Just checked on 7Zap and I think it's for RHD cars only (in this particular size anyway) has its own part number and nearly sure now that there's only one of them.

Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #160 – August 09, 2021, 11:14:20 AM Only thing is, I don't have anything to offer up at the moment.I don't want to 'brake' the flow...
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #161 – August 09, 2021, 11:23:32 AM well I was thinking it's very similar to the clip that goes where the front flexi-brake hose meets the ridged hose and monkey's 'brake' hint has cemented that idea. however there's one of them on each side and this is sightly different.But I can see there's a circle one side and the flip slide of the clip is an open U.So it's something brake system related but I haven't really done that much with the brake system. Assuming it's along the same 'lines' as the flexi to ridged retainer it is a similar clip at the rear beam end? I still imagine there would be 2 though?
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #162 – August 09, 2021, 11:28:30 AM Yes, brake related but in the sense that, that includes every aspect of the system.There may be very similar or even the same style of clip elsewhere, but this one seems to be a unique size - even the LHD equivalent is slightly different dimensions.
