Re: Waggy Working Again !
Don't see why not - it looks like a Sanden unit to me. I think Kilby do bits
for Sanden and York, although the York flows more air.

I don't take it off road - its a nice old 15 yearold car with less than 100
here in the UK ( so I'm told ; I've never seen another one). It seems a
shame to thrash it about when parts are hard / slow to come by, and I can't
buy a replacement. I'll thrash the TJ instead, and use the Waggy for the
snow :-)
