I can just bet what they are here. We seem to get hosed on parts.
I buy lots of stuff from the U.S. much cheaper, more competition and less middlemen.
I will try Napa Lordco and an independant.
I bought a part for my ATV from Texas $205 to my door, here it was $495+tax!!!
Gas here is more expensive here than the U.S., and it goes past my house to get there!!!
We wont even talk about beer!!!!

Lets avoid shot gunning or guessing or working with out tools. I will help you the best I can! I can't see or hear/feel your motor, so consider my answers, in that light. You can rent most tools.

So $44 US + $16 US S&H= $60 US or $65Cad.
I paid $86,, not bad, the retail here is $193!!!
Sometimes the border guys catch you getting stuff from the US
and it's $35 border fee.
So I have changed the O2 sensor and 180deg thermostat as not a lot of heat coming from the heater, cooling system seems ok, needle is about 1/3 on gauge.
Am off to my cabin for a few more nice fall days. N50.46.135 W120.21.190
200km away, two hills from 360meters here to 1444 meters at the crest.
Will post results later.
Anyone know why my internet explorer crashes at this web site only??
Often!!!

And toss some Linux on the side and you got a bullet proof system

Yes it is due to the fact you won't talk beer.
It is even causing this on my computer, see what you caused?

I don't seem to get it on other threads on this same site, maybe we should start a new thread...

No beer... hmppfft! Serves you right. I am glad you got O2 a good price, competition is a wonderful thing, and very natural.
I pay $17 + $2.40 returnable for 24 Blue in cans, can't drink anything else, Doctor found out many other beers are poision to me. I have another Doctor says drink a lot of fluid, I don't care what you flavor it with. Life is good...

OMG, I am so sorry. I have some good beer receipes, it isn't hard to make, and it comes out without all that poison I am allergic to. I have made it in one of those watercooler jugs (plastic) and finished it in plastic soft drink bottles.
For me, it comes out comparable in price to the OTC beer, but this could be a boon for you...

I am sorry for being so far off subject, I dragged myself into this...

Other subject, I just updated my IE browser to 8.0, and this fired up with no crashing. However now I have a whole new browser to learn, and I will never understand what Silverlight is.

Hmm, I am still off subject, I hope I don't offend anyone.

Silverlight is a plugin for Big Brother to watch you. Is a Microsoft plugin for IE and Windows OS. Kind of a proprietary "Adobe Flash Player" for Windows.

I think is a one of the .Net things. Since MS wants some like Java does. Actually, .Net Framework came out from the "Java" wars and MS as usual, wants to be greedy, by creating a proprietary thing that corners all MS users to use what they want you to use.

Netflix is a big time user. It will not play any of their Online Streaming movies unless is Windows with IE. Tried with Fire Fox and does not works. But will work on Linux if you use VirtualBox OSE. That was the only time I could fool the Netflix website to watch a movie.
