True - but there is a victory in actually placing the order!

When you find a recalcitrant parts counter, it IS a victory to get them to actually do their job, true enough. I always wished US dealers could order from Japan like they can in Canada.

Not to hijack this thread but has anyone tried to order from Japan stateside. Here the system has changed. What used to be like a fax request and a few days wait to determine availability, is now all on the computer. Maybe the US network has been upgraded.
I just picked up 2 of the little elbow hosed that.is a different id on both ends. The one on the lower rad hose fitting on the block that feeds the carb line. Kind of a hard hose to replicate.
