Hi All,
I don't see any bad writeups here on the KAE FP relay from Fcpgroton. So I'm wondering why not just skip the resoldering and chancy junk yard relays and order all new FP relays for your bricks just to take the off your troubleshooting list for the forseeable future?? I seem to remember them always being about $25 but after a brief no start the other day I looked on the website and they are only $16!! Seems like a no brainer. I ordered one for each of my cars and will save my diagnostic efforts for more pricey items like AMMs, IAC's and fuel pumps.. Any thoughts out there?

I got a fist full of stuff from 200's for free so it seemed intuative to me to spend one rainy morning and just resolder those.
I guess $16 plus shipping is good but a morning tinkering in the basement with some free parts seemed good too.
