S'cool.  A lister came through and the part should be on its way.  
Thanks Steve, and all who responded.

Now I'm in the middle of replacing my passenger side window 
regulator, and I had to leave to get some grease for the door handle.

I'm going to be installing a boost gauge after this project, and I was 
looking for some info.  The Audifans server seems to not be 
responding, otherwise I'd look in the archives.  Actually, I am 
resending this email because I think the first one didn't "take".

I just want to know if I have to run a separate pressure line to the 
motor (where?), or can I tee off the line to the ECU.  Would it be 
bad to tee off the ECU line?

Thanks,

Ken
