I was looking at eBay for ISV for my 5-cyl '89 Audi 100. There are few,
but the ones that look like the one I have in my car have BOSCH part no
0 280 140 512 and 0 280 140 516. They look exactly the same (on eBay
photo).

I looked at one in my Audi, but part No is not visible any more.
Anyone knows what is the difference between these two BOSCH parts? Can I
get 512 or 516?

Not convinced that sellers on eBay can provide exact information, and I
would not want to buy wrong ISV.

As far as I know, some have two electrical connectors and some have
three. That's probably the only thing you need to worry about.

Both part numbers show up in a Google search. You may want to plough
through the links.

Both 512 and 516 have two pin electrical connectors. And on photo both
look exactly the same. I was thinking if there is some difference
mechanically or electronically.

I did, but I could find no difference.

As long as it has two electrical connectors, it should be fine -
they're not exactly rocket science. I've got a few of them myself -
I'll have a look at the part numbers for you.

BTW have you tried cleaning out the one you've got?

Yes I did. Actually I am not sure that ISV is my problem. It's a long
story. I have dual fuel petrol - LPG powered Audi 100 and idle problem
(stalling) both when on petrol and LPG, only when on LPG it is more
noticeable.

I checked hoses for any vacuum leak, and couldn't find any. So I solved
my problem (kind of) by cutting a wire from ISV to fuel injection
control unit (under right side kick panel), and connecting it to rear
fog light switch. Now I can start with ISV on, and for a few minutes
engine runs on higher rpm idle. When engine gets warmer, I hit the
switch, disconnect ISV, and engine will not stall.

Interesting thing is that engine when warmer that 50 deg Celsius runs
fine without ISV connected. Am I right then to assume that I have no
vacuum leaks?

There are some used ISV-s on eBay that are not expensive, so I was
thinking of buying one and see if ISV is my problem.

I couldn't really say for sure. One thing I have noticed with these
5-cylinder engines (particularly the earlier ones, i.e. up to 1988 or
so) is that a poor connection at the temperature sensors (near the
thermostat) will give the same kind of stalling problems that you
mention.

A used ISV may be no better than what you already have.

Having said that, I couldn't read the numbers on either of mine
either.

I looked a little closer at my ISV, and it looks like last three digits
are 512. So you think I should do fine with 516 (two pin electrical
connector as 512 is). Will keep looking at eBay... Maybe something will
pop-up.
