Is an Auxiliary Air Regulator even necassary in warm weather climates. Mine went bad on my '73 1.7 and I just got off the phone with a Jerry at Pelican and he said in a warm weather climate (Orlando) I can basically remove it, and cap off the lines running to it and it shouldnt be a problem. Any suggestions? Porsche wants 450$ for one and that aint gonna happen.
