Vacuum limiter availability
Vacuum limiter (decel valve) on my throttle body went bad, creating a vaccum leak. Currently the ports are capped with rubber endcaps. I'd like to replace the vacuum limiter, but I can't find the part on any of the normal websites. Is it NLA?

You need 930 110 173 00 and they are available but at $524 each - OUCH!!!!!
Mark at 928 International has them for a lot less and maybe used one for even less than that. IIRC they come of a Mercedes with the similar setup hence the price is much more palatable than the Porsche price.
Make sure you search using 928 110 173 00 - note 928 prefix not 930.

Mine also was the source of a vacuum leak. Removed the 930 p/n and bought the plugs shown on the 83 drawing IIRC so it looks stock for the smog folks (advice here on RL, thanks again). I did call 928intl. to buy a used one and advice was to remove and plug. I appreciate their honesty on this and other things I have inquired about. My 928 has run great ever since without fail.
