Remanufactured Carbs

The problem with most any remanufactured part these days is that most likely it's been reboxed and or relabeled. I hate that with a passion. We have all types of reman parts come in all the time in a different box but relabeled with a brand that we carry. So, ultimately, you don't know who in HELL that part came from.

TOMCO for example, USED TO BE a good source for quality reman carburetors. Over the years, through reboxing and relabeling, they have lost some of their street cred. I "think" they are still a good reman company. Problem is, you might get somebody else's box with a TOMCO relable on it. That's not a real TOMCO reman carburetor, but somebody else's BULLSHIT.

Add to all that, THIS: Lots of parts are sold daily. Lots of those same parts are returned. Either they were the wrong part, or they were defective, or the customer found out they didn't need it....whatever. Those parts are returned for "whatever reason". THey are supposed to be inspected, so that we can decide what KIND of return to do, OR if we need to return it at ALL.

If a product that's been sold SEALED for example comes back opened for a return, whether it's been used or not, it's supposed to be a warranty return. That way, it does not get new returned and put back on the shelf. Same goes for known defective parts. Problem is there, a LOT of employees both with our company and others as well don't give a crap enough to open the box and look, OR they are just plain too stupid to know the proper return procedure. So, you get more bad parts mixed in with the already defective parts that were there to start with.

Honestly yall and this is the truth........none of the carburetors that we deal with is hard to build. Get a book. Read up on it and LEARN to do it yourself. It's not hard and is very rewarding. Plus you know it's done right if you do it yourself. You don't have to depend on Jerome and Chaniquia to do their jobs right, because that's probably not going to happen.
