The sender is used as part of the lambda system on 80 to 83.
The threaded hole is a 6mm bolt to hold down the shroud. Bruce Last edited by Flat6pac; 02-23-2016 at 03:00 AM.. |

Also the breather with threads for a sender is used on the '84-'89 3.2 to activate the heater fan on top of the engine. Also the 930 engine has a thermo valve installed in the breather.
Get an earlier magnesium breather cover to save yourself 4 ounces?  I don't know if that's the actual difference in weight. But I do know they're light as a feather (I have one on the shelf).
