Tom, you missed my point.
I was referring mainly to the home builder.
Why should an oil pump be shipped this way?
Should a person have to tear his "NEW" Carb apart before he installs it?
Should a person have to tear a custom built motor apart that he paid to have built. I thought I was trusting the integrety of the manufacture to produce a quality product for resale to the public!!!
Why should a person have to tear anything(or as you say all Melling oil pumps) apart that are purchased NEW and check for defects or poor workmanship?
Come on now Tom.

Why should a person have to buy a product knowing that it needs to be taken apart to clean and check it?

Tom and Ken C. I'm totally confused as to why you would promote a product that in the last 4 years comes dirty and rusty ( I personally have had troubles with the Ford and Pontiac pumps)?

Would you sell a product with that kind of guarantee?

I build and sell about 125/150 engines a year. Stock to race. Plus a ton of kits and parts. And you are saying that I need to tear every pump apart and check their workmanship?

Is this included in the purchase price from Melling?

Or an extra charge that I should pass along to the customer?
What other NEW products should I apply the same logic to?
