Greetings all: I apologize if this is a little far removed from this lists normal topic, but I need help. Anybody have any experience with the Bosch inj. control brains? My question is this: What does the three digit number in the oval signify? The reason for my question is that the brain for my '85 GTi engine went out, and I discovered this brain from an '85 4000 S. The Bosch part numbers are identical, as are the VW/AUDI part numbers, but the three digits in the oval underneath the Bosch ensignia differ. Both boxes have the Bosch number of 0 280 8000 140, and VW/AUDI number of 811 906 264 A. The GTi box has the oval-number of 810, while the AUDI has the oval-number of 078. Any ideas? No one, including the area dealerships have a clue. Should I risk it and connect it and see what happens? Any information would be greatly appreciated. TIA David Ian Utley
