Another part number question

Featured Replies

I'm guessing this clip is part of the intake connection, but could someone please confirm the part number? It's up against the bulkhead.image.png

Its a wire holding clip meant to hold onto the water hose and the wire, no need to replace it really, if you sooo want N10486101

Well, I guess I don't really want one, as I can't find any for sale!

Neither do I, if need be I use ALFA/FPT parts that I have plenty or zip ties. I like OEM but not to that extent.

Clips can be good for keeping one bit off another and prevent chaffing, secure the route, reduce vibration, other stuff, letting things wave in the wind isn't always best but often perhaps one missing fixing doesn't matter, all depends. Concours of course is a different matter, can get very anal very quickly.

Somewhere there will be a clip sold that will do the job, you might have to buy a packet of a dozen, or 100 or 500 but if from China they'll be so cheap it won't matter about quantity and you have replacement spares (which you might need). If you go to garage or car supplier websites you'll find fixings for the various manufacturers of cars and generally just takes so longer to match up all the options offered against what you need. Only a few years ago you could still get a paper printed colour catalogue posted to you, possibly still can, I don't know.

I bet there still might be someone or somewhere in the Czech Republic that has stock of the original but it's a matter of you finding them. If any army used that part then stocks of them can appear decades later with specialists, not sure they'd bother with a plastic clip though. A mate got an out of contract (30+ years) NOS engine, been in his 1960s car for a few years now., the engine had a long production life, British of course, tuned it nicely goes very well.

In hardware or Hobby stores may have, for another use but maybe they fit.

I used a tie-wrap in the end, not aesthetically pleasing, but it'll do for now.....

I don't think it matter with this but be selective with what you tie-wrap or cable-tie to what and how tightly.

As a totally non-specific example to your car, many cable-tie HT leads together this may not be good idea with certain engine set ups.

And just for the fun of it as I referred to cable-ties and as you may encounter wiring needs on the car.

Yes but haw many times you will open this box? It's for cabin filter and since you have no a/c then leave it as is.
