Idle Stepper Motor - Melb - Aust -

Hi All,



Does anyone know where I can get an idle stepper motor for a 98 3.9 Disco without paying $220? Maaan that's too much for such an item!



Thanks Pauly


In comparison to many other manufacturers that's pretty cheap.

If you can wait 'til May I might be able to bring a spare with me in my hand luggage, I had a couple of spare ones kicking about in the shed somewhere.

It's worth knowing that these are a standard Bosch item which are used on a wide range of vehicles so a trip to the scrap yard might be worth a go. I can't find it at the moment but I did have a Bosch part number somewhere which you can cross reference to find a list of vehicles it was fitted to.

If you can wait, I'll do you a swap for a second hand Ford EDIS-8 unit - available in most Ford based V8s (Crown Victoria 4.6 for example) and unobtanium in the UK but alledgedly easy to get hold of in Australian scrapyards.

cheers

For the EDIS-8, try Ian at Limospares.com

Thanks Dave,

That sounds great!.. I'm sending you an email now... please let me know if you don't get it.
