I think my stepper is sticking a bit - I cleaned and lubricated it a few months ago which helped, but it's still not perfect.

Since the cost of a new genuine stepper is fairly high, I took to eBay to find this:

Has anyone tried it?
I'm aware that there can be issues with these copies - I believe the main issues are a longer stem length and air leaks.
But I'm happy to cut the stem shorter and seal up any air leaks if that's what needs doing!

I bought one of those as a stop-gap having stupidly overtightened my original one and snapped the thread. Its now been in there over 12 months and no problems at all - nice smooth tickover too. Guess I was lucky and got one of the good ones
