Wow, Kitty, good memory about the Ranco name and it being the original metal design with the thermal coil. I'd totally forgotten about it. Don't recall seeing mention of that one here for well over 10 years. I only ever had to replace one of those and I vaguely recall I did get the Ranco one rather than paying through the nose for one from Volvo, but not sure where I got it, perhaps a local Volvo aftermarket distributor I used to have, but more likely FCP Groton (now FCPEuro) or IPD. Even more wow that there's still some stock out there on eBay and the price isn't that gross.
