Karl please don't get snarky here. And yes you most certainly know more about engines than me. Why do you suppose I'm on a forum picking brains. If I knew everything I wouldn't need to right? If I knew more I might be able to figure out why my engine needs replacing rather than just fix it. But I don't. Life is about learning. I knew that getting into this hobby. As for calling me a know it all? Well first off, I AM NOT A "YOUNG MAN"! So you assumed something here too didn't ya?
So ok, I didn't really put my gender in my profile and my logo here cut off my website. But... honestly, especially when it comes to talking about motors or anything mechanical, I found out long ago that women don't get the same respect guys do. So when folks here assume I'm a guy, fine. Probably helps me in the long run.
As for Grubee, folks I TRIED them based on this forum right here. Based on your suggestions. The very first reply I got back from them they put right in the subject "not recommended." Not you need to do XXXXX, or just WHY I need to do XXXXX. Just no. So right off the bat they don't seem to WANT my business. I will never know how good they might be with that attitude. To heck with them. They might have the best parts known to mankind but they flunked with public relations and salesmanship.
Besides, NO ONE has answered the issue I raised about their "peek a boo" transmission cover made of plastic, clamped on, no way to keep dirt out, and way more expensive than the one I have that has NOTHING AT ALL wrong with it? Tell me how my transmission could possibly cause their motors to fail? All the motor has to do is turn. WHAT it turns should make no difference. Pushy sales people with bad attitudes lose any chance of my business and that's it.
