Yes, the mono-valve insert is what I'm after.  Price?
Sorry for the lousy pix.

There’s still an unresolved production problem on the mono valve for your car. 
I can only get the insert for them at this time.

I recently found Chinese junk mono-valves and sent 'em back as they didn't 
work.  Are good mono-valves available?

Thanx.

No one said that maintaining an OLD MB is great working order was going to
stay cheap. It is a lot less than buying another car, then having to sort
it out . . .

You could pay someone to fan you instead.  That might be cheaper.

And cheaper in the long run than getting a new one.
I thought about assuming a lease on a Cruze for $3 a day.
Decided it would be cheaper to drive a W140 V-8 with double the fuel 
consumption.

Seems like $200 should get you a whole monovalve, doesn't it?

Arrgh. Should read $5 a day ($150 per month, plus I'd have to insure it)
