Attention buyers, be sure you know what you are buying. Any item a seller sells that states their item replaces a specific part is most likely an after market part manufactured in another country. I have recently fallen victim to after market parts sold on Amazon that were defective. In both cases had I not known what to check for and installed the part it would have resulted in serious damage to my engine. Be sure to ask the buyer before you purchase any replacement part for a vehicle or boat if they have inspected the item and if the item was manufactured in accordance to OEM specifications, if they don't know, I suggest you spend a little more and purchase an OEM part. Spending less on an after market part may cost you thousands later if the part fails.In no way is Amazon is at fault and the seller may be unaware of manufacturing deficiencies.
