Carl,

It must be the age. My boost solenoid just failed the other day. I haven't replaced it yet, but that and some other DC work on the Winter Work list.

Matt,

When I called Bounds, he used one of his favorite phrases about "the half life" of that part being "right about now". I guess he was right. The funny thing is that, this being a Southwestern coach, they didn't physically look bad. They were not nice and shiny like the new ones, but not nasty and rusty like some I have seen in photos. They just didn't work.
