D-Jet MPS repair diaphragm

Post by SlowLane » Mon Oct 22, 2012 10:12 pm

While drooling over some of the offerings at Tangerine Racing, I noticed this little gem.

At $128, it's a bit pricey, but if you've got a busted MPS diaphragm, I imagine it would look like a bargain.

Its cheap at that price considering Bosch will rebuild one for approx $700. After installing a new diaphragm you still have to calibrate it using a Wavetek inductance meter or adjust the A/F via a LM1.
I think I have 50 junk MPSs laying in a box waiting for good diaphragms.

50? Wow. Maybe you could get break on the diaphragm price if you buy them in bulk.
