Rumor has it Speedvision does lots of re-runs; I'll search on the Dish and see what it hits.

I know several people who got them in the past month. Sounds like he was lazy! GP Sorenson part number 7792590 and NAPA number 33055A (several available in both the Portland and Sacramento warehouses) The dealer and NAPA no longer carry the EGR valve for an 85 GW with 360. So I'm looking for these things, if anyone has good ones, or knows where to get them: 1. Good EGR valve. 2. Good coolant temp override switch/sensor piece. (not totally sure of terminology) 3. Still need driver's door two-prong dome light switch. NAPA part was not right one, and dealer gets $20 (!) for it. Thanks for any leads.
