    What's this Hella relay go to?

    I bought a box labeled 912 parts and this relay was in it. Other parts in the box were not 912 parts but this appears to have a Porsche sticker on it. Unfortunately the first 6 digits are unrecognizable. Thanks in Advance.

    While we're at it... What are these two tubes? Heater?

    Hi.
    It looks like a turn signal flasher for 65-67 912, if it's 3 prong.
    black T goes on fan shroud to link Air cleaner.
    I can't picture the location of the 3rd piece, (guessing) a type of breather??

    Thanks for the info! The relay is indeed 3 pronged. I assumed it was for an early 911/912 but wasn't sure.
    The 3rd piece is indeed for a breather tube as you suggested. appearently Sierra Madre sells a repro under "breather metal connecting tube"

    Jos, I might be wrong on the black T. It could also be a fresh air vent in the dash area. Oops.

    Ed is correct...as usual.
    The black "T" is also a 912 part in the back of the shroud.

    The black T is a 912 part for air cleaners but mounts to the top of 912 fan shroud that has 2 ears that holds it on.

    The relay is a common turn signal relay. Some might like the vintage look (if it works) but there are common electronic replacements.
    The Tee fitting is for carburetor heat on the 912. I think it was originally provided on all years, although other parts of the carb heat system differ by year. Paper tubing connects from an outlet in the right longitudinal and then paper tubing is connected to the top of the air filter housings.
    The third piece is for the crank case vent from the oil filler tank to the air cleaner. This piece is unique to the '67 engines with Knecht wire mesh air filters. This part is fairly rare and sought after by people trying to get EGR with their aftermarket air filters.
