I have a question about a part that I have never seen adequately explained.
It is the small short steel, in-line cylinder that follows the fuel pump in
FI cars. It is located in a loop of hose that pokes through a block-off
plate in the right side of the front axle beam.
I have a few books that refer to it as a muffler or damper, but it does not
appear in the Bosch D-Jetronix service pages, in the VW microfilm, or in the
Bentley manual.
Has anyone ever taken one of these apart? What is inside? I could do this,
but I don't want to sacrifice a good one, and I don't have any that have
rotted through yet.
