When ordering John Cradock has two:
STC3338G At £17ish
STC3338 at £6ish
Both fit apparently but is it worth £11 extra for the G?

The way i look at things like these.. it's not bank breaking.. but having to replace in 6 months is a pain. Do you trust your engine to a ~£5 part?

Yes and make sure you test the new one in boiling water before fitting, there are a lot of duff ones about.
