Air pump!

Category: Engine - Intake/Fuel
Price: $75
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Others, Series I
Location (US State/Canada/Int): IN

My air pump is starting to sound like a jet engine when I do a cold start, so I think its time to start looking for a new air pump. Does anybody have one for sale or know of a place that sells them?
