Argh! Carburetor parts
I am in the middle of rebuilding my carb, when I noticed that the power piston retainer bushing is cracked. I contacted all of the usually places local (auto parts stores), and none of them carry the bushing. They wanted to sell me either a new carb or a re-manufactured. So next, I contacted carburetor shops.
Maybe this is normal business, but I am shocked that my only two local carburetor shops require a minimum purchase amount of greater than $25. Neither place would sale me an over priced $3 nylon bushing. Perhaps this is the reason why these kinds of places are going out of business. With money in hand, they refused to sale me a bushing that I needed for my rebuild. What ever happened to customer service? Am I missing something in this situation? McDonald's doesn't have any issues with accepting my money. I ended up ordering the bushing over the internet, along with a couple of other items to meet their minimum purchase price. I am having to pay $7 shipping for a plastic bushing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's just crazy |

Typical. They will complain the internet is stealing their business and then they pull crap like that.
