Online car parts specialists RANT....
Ordered a carb overhaul kit from a so called specialist, this is the pic on their website:

This is what turned up:

To say I'm anoyed is an understatement, no sign of the accelerator diaphragms, needle valves, just a packet with some paper gaskets, fibre
washers, and o rings, all for over £25.
I know I'll have calmed down tomorrow, but they can get ready for a difficult phone call.
End of rant.

Sure is. Trade descriptions act time!! Although it depends on the description given alongside the photo.
Without a link to the advert it's difficult to be 100% but I think you'ld be well within your rights to demand the bits they haven't
supplied but showed....

Part no FL 12 no description, just the pic and 'it does 2 carbs'
Think I might try a dumb call or email 1st, "there seem to be some parts missing from the kit you supplied"

had the same thing the other day. won a set of zx6r carbs off ebay from a well known bike breaker. on the auction the picture was of a complete set
of carbs with nothing missing no mention in the ex of sensors not being included. when they turned up the swines had robbed the throttle position
sensor off them. tried to contact them no reply within 3days so have opened a dispute with ebay.

Hi
A definite second recommendation for Fastroadcars. Unbeatable service for Weber and carb related parts.
Thats unbelievable service if they fail to resolve the issue.
Cheers Matt
