If I remember right you live in the Seattle area. There is a place called Seaway Marine in West Seattle. I used to buy all of my VP stuff from them. Also there is a place called Jack's Payless in South Seattle that carries a lot of Bosch parts. 206-722-4188. Good Luck."

I'll check those sources out. Thanks for the leads.
Are you still into boating?"
