You must type like the wind... That was fast!

Anyway, that's a fair enough opinion. I do wonder if anyone has actually ever manufactured nozzles for our cars in the states... Somehow I doubt it. I think the only countries they make DN0SD240 nozzles in, for example, are Germany, (Monark, which is rumoured to have ceased producing them in Germany), India (Bosch), and Italy (Bosio). I don't think we'll specifically lose any American jobs over a Chinese nozzle. Maybe some jobs in India? After the last tech support call I made, I'd kind of enjoy causing lost jobs over there, though.

Thanks for your input!
