Anyone ever buy parts for their Rangie from Autozone. I checked prices for rotors for example and the cost difference is astounding. What am I missing? and where they quality parts? | ||

really,, what year rangie you have and how much do they want for rotors? i use advanced auto a lot because they are so close, but there rotor arm for the distributor was shit so i am leary with that stuff. i have found typically advance to be very over priced and not quality to match. on items like the rotors. rd | ||

My Autozone couldn't get the cap or rotor. The aftermarkets are usually crap anyway - stick with genuine. They do have a good stepper motor for about $32. | ||

I think it's a Wells AC102 but they can cross reference it. | ||

Thanks Steve, I am off to Autozone. | ||

Got the Wells AC102 it came up as for a 88 Camaro, it was $40 at my autozone, screwed and plugged right in, the old rover idles so smooth I don't know what to do. The old one was black with soot. For kicks I had them run the number for my 92 landrover and it came up with AC114 for $176, what a scam, must be the special landrover tax, because we're all so rich. Thanks again Steve for the part #. | ||

I had really bad luck with ps/ alt belts from them . They do seem to have lower end replacement parts . | ||

I just bought another stepper motor for a friend yesterday with an 87 RRC, Went in to Advance ( used to be Discount Auto) asked for a idle control valve for an 86 Buick Grand National Turbo. Came back with the part, $27 plus tax, screwed it in, problem solved, and away we went. Total time from drive up to install and drive away 6 minutes. | ||

Is the stepper motor the same for the 3.9 & the 4.2? If not, does anyone have a part number for the 4.2 stepper motor? | ||
| Rick Dahms (Rickd) New Member Username: Rickd Post Number: 6 Registered: 04-2003 |
The answer is: Yes, they are the same stepper motor. | ||

No problem. A little stepper motor/Idle air control valve research led to the following list. I don't know anything about the quality of any of the following, but they all seem to fit our trucks: Niehoff #21738 $37 Wells AC102 $35 Napa #MPF31738 $36 Echlin#CRB 21738 $53 Lucas C4030 56730 $140 For whatever it's worth.
