Thats a great deal, evidently he has no more. I'm thinking that is my problem also.

I bought it from Doug Rippie Motorsports: http://www.dougrippie.com/
It was $12 plus shipping. The install is pretty straightforward: unscrew the fitting at the end of the bias thing; remove the white sensor; slide out the internal shaft. (The shaft doesn't just fall out - the instructions say to use a small hook - I found that a 7/16 bolt will thread through the C-clip and was able to pull it out that way.)

Undo the C-clip - the old spring pops out. Put the new spring back in and secure it with the C-clip. It's a little challengint to get that C-clip back in - but with enough muscle - you can do it.

Did he tell you that? or are you assuming because he doesn't have one posted? He's been selling these for months. He just doesn't have more than one up at a time... I'd send him a question
