Well we just failed in our first attempt to race our "just completed" 142 ITB car due to a bad D-Jet manifold pressure sensor that became evident during pre-race practice. Both the one on the car and our spare are bad. I pulled the culprit apart last night, and sure enough the copper diaphragm is cracked. Since these things are NLA, we're looking for used or rebuilt units. If anyone has a good used one they'd be willing to sell, please get in touch. Also, I know rebuilt units are available for Porsche 914s. Has anyone seen rebuilt volvo versions? In the meantime, I guess I'll try to solder or braze the cracked diaphragm. Any experiences repairing these things? - how long did the repair last?
Cheers,
Nick
