My engine stop valve leaks down air when I kill the engine.  It appears that it only needs a new seal.  I am pointin to it in the picture.  Can I get just a seal?  I'm in San Antonio.   Where can I find this valve?

you can get kits for the shutdown valve from mci, or any bus repair outfit will have them
it doesn,t matter if it leaks down after the engine shuts down anyway. when you go to restart, the starter signal dumps the air in the cyl via a solenoid valve

I got the part from Luke and installed it.  Problem solved.  It was $7.59 shipped from Luke.  This is the first bus part I've every had shipped at less than $10.  Luke's the man.  Others probably would have charged $10 just for a small part handling fee.
