I bought one from ebay for 90$ shipped. I forget the guy's name. it was a buy it now for 90$ with free shipping. no problems with it. it was a guy with a chinese name. Yoshi something. Great seller. He shipped next day.

I did however see someone selling one today at 53$. Good luck.

got mine for 75. It was clean. One of the mods got one from the same dude. He takes them off engines that don't need them and sells. So they have been mounted, but never really used.

From observing the paypal email address yoshisakura16@hotmail.com
I believe that he's Japanese, and actually, he's a she.

Her name seems to be Sakura Yoshi. Sakura stands for Cherry Blossoms. Cherry Blossoms are the trees that surround Capital Hill and the memorials.

I got my KS about 2weeks after my payment... but I wasn't checking my mail everyday.
Brand new, it's working great. I didn't know a KS would make such a difference.

BTW, I don't think you should get used KS's. They only last about 70kish anyway (or so I've read). I want all the life I can get. BTW, I paid 90.


PS)
Check this out. (Pics of cherry blossoms in DC)

I ordered the KS from yoshisakura16 on Tuesday and had it 1 week later. He ships by USPS from Bethlehem, PA

It was OEM new in box. Great product and price

Yoshi responded to my e-mail same day. Maybe he/she's just busy. It'll come soon. No worries.

A bad KS by itself will not throw the CEL.. you'd need to pull the codes. If you do get 03 04, it is either detecting knock and retarding your timing, or it's a bad KS.

if we can get around 15 heads, maybe she'll be interested...
