Anyone know a source for the rubber plug wire holders used on 40hp motors?

Part # 113 905 451
Wolfsburg West is out of stock.
http://www.wolfsburgwest.com/cart/DetailsList.cfm?ID=113905451

I also found them at Bughaus.org.
http://www.bughaus.com/spark_plug_wire_to_connector_-_113905451.htm
But the shopping cart comes up with $8.95 for shipping. I sent an e-mail to see if they can ship them using a less expensive method.

I need a couple of these to complete a freshly rebuilt 40hp motor I'm installing. I don't want the later style plastic ones that always seem to cut into the plug wires. I want the earlier rubber style ones where the plug wire slides through the hole in the rubber retainer.

Send me a pm if you have any spares you can part with.

Thanks, Stan

I'd like a set too for the same reasons. I thought I'd ordered some a while back (not from Bughaus though)...... but got the usual plastic jobs instead. argh.

However, I use rubber-coated PVL wires and not Bosch silicone ones, which are much less likely to get cut up by the plastic corners.

Art Thraen rebuilt my motor and that is what he used on my motor, so

he may have them.
