Hello,

My fuel pump gas throttle plastic part broke on my 1990 Volvo 740 Diesel so I have designed a new one, cause I needed to drive the next day. First 2 versions broke, so these 2 are the result of testing, failing and learning.

Printed with 0.6mm nozzle, it has M5x0.8 mm threads inside. and I used PLA for printing. Version 3 has been at this time in use for 3 weeks (~500km), and still is not broken in 0-5 Celsius weather. I did also make version 4, it should be stronger but I have not personally used it yet.  I use the car daily, and in minus degrees and so far it has not failed me.

Best way to print is from bottom, so thread can be done nicely.

Because the engine in Volvo is Volkswagen's diesel, it should also be compatible with other VW diesel engines at least. BUT I don't own one, so if it does work let me know.

How it works,

If you have the existing steel rod, just screw it on top of it, and fasten with a nut. Recommend using some sort of grease, on the ballpoint.  And then just push it on, It in theory should make room for ballpoint diameter and then close around it. Does not take a lot of Force!
