Yes, that's the part number - 928.110.719.01. It's on PET Page 105-00 item#34.

Rich, why do you think you need a new one? These ball sockets rarely fail, they usually just get rusted and the spring clips don't move. I've cleaned them out by spraying them with liquid wrench and a dremel tool with a thin wire brush end. It's certainly worth a try.

Also, your cam gears look very worn. If you haven't replaced them, I would recommend doing it sooner rather than later. Once the coating is gone they wear very quickly and start "cupping", which is not good for the belt. Same with the Oil pump gear and the main crank gear (not cheap!)

I dont need the rod just the ball due to the Plastic inserts being cracked and not keeping the rod on the ball joints. I also beleave the threads are clockwise on one side and counter clockwise in the other.

I'll be back at the shop tonight.

Note the Pics are not of my car, they are from big daves car.

Dremel off the ball studs, then make up a rod with right & left hand heim joints & use
allen bolts with nylock nuts in place of the ball studs. If you just need ends for the cables,
consider getting rid of the fixed ball & using female metric heims & allen bolts
(thread size to fit cables) or if you can't find metric ones look into using an American
threaded one that you drill & put a metric thread insert of the correct size into the female end.
Something like a size 10- 32 heim should be big enough

Looking a little, I found this:

be sure you tell them you want the ball to be loose so you don't get a sticky throttle.
some of the heims are very tight.

if you have 2 good ball caps you could drill out the threads and JB weld one side to the rodmake sure to measure the rod prior to any machine work .

OR just get a used ball/ rod assembly from 928 INTL

If you're going to tell everyone you used pics of my engine, at least mention they're from before I rebuilt (and cleaned) it!!


(sorry I don't have info to help you here)

Look very simialr to these:- https://www.europaspares.com/FUEL_SY...INTS_3748.html
M5 threads. Also seen some in M4. Not visible that they come in RH and LH threads, but that can be overcome.
