Napa auto parts has a part number ST51. 

We went with as an emergency repair to replace a broken Lucas at the track on a 
Sunday. They were the only ones in the town open that had anything. The counter 
person spent an hour researching what they had that would work. It works. Very 
reliable. 

I think its actually for 60's era Ford trucks. The Tr4 does not seem to mind or 
be insulted by it any way.

Good Luck, 

Paul
