Kevin, if this is in preparation for acquiring a ZE, you may be fortunate enough to get a ZE that already has a Millennia IM and TB. Look at the thread from millaj01 from last spring. He got a pristine ZE with all of the goodies. A fortunate find to say the least.
Probetalk is always a pretty good source for KL68 TB's.

I just looked at car-parts.com and it seems there's one available here in Qc at Pintendre auto. I'll ask the mx-3ers around that area if they could go for little $

this may be unrealistic, but i can really only afford like $100 for it max. money's tight and i still have to buy a lot of stuff before she gets installed. having to buy a $250 starter didn't help the bank account. let me know what happens at that yard. thanks :)

135 cad $ is the cheapest my guy could find out of 4 places
it is complete.

i do want it, but whether or not i can afford it depends on the answers i get from my other post. is this a rush thing? do you know how good of a seal the valve makes?

any ideas with my other problem would help too.

Find a pull-a-part junkyard with a Millenia and get one for $15. :D
I was fortunate, and bought a whole curve-neck intake on ebay for $75 with TB and injectors....at that price I guess I'll hang on to the TB :shock:

The pullapart yard here in Charlotte never has millenias but other locations have at least one. You can check here:
http://www.pullapart.com I am sure there are similar yards everywhere.

I get most if not all my OEM parts off of junkers. And with a 626 I needed alot of parts (they were mfg'd in USA...) and there are alot of 626s in Charlotte :) Probes too :)
One day I am going to score a decent KLDE for ~ $120 I just can't wait. :P
