Fuel selector valve
I've done searches but cannot find an online Ford dealer that has a fuel valve assembly listed in their parts. My local dealer has one in stock for about, ok, sit down, $400.00. You read that right.
The aftermarket valve selectors are around $100.00, but one eBay site said they aren't compatible with PS.
Am I up a creek and have to go with my dealer? Or does someone know where to get cheaper?

Thanks pjwoolw. My eyes must be going. I sure don't see any sponsors at the top of my page. There are a couple of ads, one for chevy, the other for upgrades. The Vendors tab gives all sorts, but didn't find the part there.
My truck is a 97 F250 4wd PSD extended cab long bed. I did a search on the part number you gave and got a hit for ebay, but no pics. I want to make sure this is not for the E series.
I did finally locate a site that actually gave a parts diagram per my VIN and located their fuel valve. It looks the same per their diagram. They're showing part # **TZ-9189-A, replaced by **3Z-9189-A for $201.25. How convenient of them not to give the first two letters of the part #. At least it's half the cost of my local dealer, but UPS is $45. Beggars can't be choosers.
I did find a 2006 dated thread here that states the last letter in the part # is A= 3 port valve and B= 6 port valve. Mine has six ports. Now I don't know if the above part is correct. Guess I'll have to make some phone calls on Monday to verify before I order.
