I will research price and availably,. its not worth the risk to have the valve changed Monday moming, its about a 6 hour change. I can schedule valve change on Saturday in Palm Bch with Gulfstream,. I can't say this is our issue, since we have tried, both cowl and wing anti-ice valves during flights,. but I did select wing and cowl anti-ice during our decent into Newark on last flight. If this valve is remaining partially open, I cant imagine it would cause a vibration. tests for tomorrow flight: -depart with all to cockpit vents closed. -after departure, pull the circuit breaker to SAT/TAS probe air valve, to assure the WOW curcuit (Weight On Wheels) is closing this valve. -during climb, select wing anti-ice heat -during decent, at 12,500ft, select both bleed switches to OFF and fly un-pressurized, we should have smooth flight since NO air will be coming into cabin from engines. manually close outflow valve. thx Larry EFTA_R1_00367625 EFTA01923322
