| Anyone know---will a fuel accumulator for a 911 work for a 924? The 911 PN is 0438 170 002 and the 924 PN is 0438 170 024. Do you know the difference? They look the same. |

It's dependent on the CIS fuel pressure and demand. Also possibly the angle and style/size of the fittings. If pressure between the 924 and 911 is the same, it should work..... _________________ 1979 924 NA race car H-Prod SCCA

It seems this one BOSCH 0 438 170 040 works like a charm. I think inlet or outlet needs an adapter to a different size. One of the guys from Polish 924 forum did it and is very happy with it. _________________ ---

Seems to cost about the same as the correct one that don't need any adapters. Or can you find it significantly cheaper anywhere? _________________ 1980 924 Turbo

Cedric,
I have been searching for a lower cost new accumulator. So far, I find the correct PN 0438170024 is about $250. The one that kondzi mentions 0438170040 is about $117. That is about 1/2 the price of the 0024. Maybe I just cannot find the correct vendor to get the 0024 at a lower price.
Thanks for your comment. |

That's the one I have. 120 euros from Amazon vs. 250 for the porsche one. (Live in the Netherlands)
Physical dimensions are the same, but 1 of the fittings is bigger than the porsche one.
I soldered a small connector that fits the fuel hose and bigger fitting, but still have to find time to mount it to the car. |
