John, You may have gotten an answer to this already. Because of Hurricane Ivan, I lost 10 days. Just now able to review my mail. The anode cup is #234407. Have to cut off the old one and clean of the old silicone. Seal the new one with RTV and allow to set at least 24 hours. Carefully examine the tube for any coolant leakage.
