I found this part number floating around the web for the little black bosch BOV.

0280142103

Im betting there are a few variations of this number.DO those who have it like it and is this the right p/n?? I just need 2 BOV's on my propane setup and need to grab a second one, these are simple/cheap and easy to install vs flanges, etc and spendy BOV's. I also trust parts from bosch a lot.. designed to last a while in cars.

I've run them as my second bov. They work fine. I'm not sure on the part number though. I have seen one go bad and start leaking at idle.

very simular to factory one on my dodge spirit r/t, dont last long at 14-15psi but thats also from 1992 could be some upgrades since then, BUT get a good BOV and set it up so it sucks in air Naturaly aspirated until it senses boost little more low end power and spools faster exspecially when running a large turbo.

Hmm.. I have another one I can use, its needs a flange made.. but thanks for the input.. time to build a flange, and I will be setting it up to open at idle.. easy to do and definately should do something... aint gonna hurt.

I run my synapse open at idle. That bosch that went bad started leaking at idle and not re-sealing when you hit the throttle. They should close the instant the throttle is chopped.

THE BOSCH BOV DOESN'T OPEN COMPLETELY AT IDLE ON THESE MOTORS. NOT ENOUGH VACUUM. I USE ONE ANYWAY, I LIKE THE PRICE
