The answer is ALWAYS McMastre-Carr. McMaster-Carr I haven't looked, but they have it. They will deal with individuals (unlike Grainger) and they stock everything. Shipping is fast and fairly priced, but their prices are not low...

Bingo. They had it in stock. Only $6 but they don't tell the shipping price till after you buy it. I don't think it will be much. I ordered.

McMaster Carr is who I use all the time for those odd things that you just can't find anywhere else. Great company to deal with. Supper fast and fair pricing!!!

I got my order from McMaster Carr today. Great one day shipping for only $4. It took 5 minutes to put it on and now my compressor works fine again.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but today's marketing seems to be that anything under $100 is disposable.
With parts mark ups and labor rates (which they want to increase) just about anything is 'disposable'.

How well I know that. I was in the air conditioning business for 38 years and for most of that time, the only part of an air conditioner that was so expensive that we recommended the customer not repair it was the compressor. Right before I retired, an Asian-made air conditioner listed 37 different parts that cost more than the air conditioner sold for brand new. How could a seviceman make a living repairing them?

Yeah McMaster is weird about not telling you shipping costs, but then you finally get them, and it is cheap. But it makes people nervous. Not sure why they do that...
