Following up on my emulsion tube issue this week:
These carbs were purchased from Webercarbsdirect.com and were represented as genuine Webers. They are not. They are Chinese knock-offs. The retailer refuses to take them back. You've been warned! Do everyone a favor and spread this around to help others from getting screwed. |

This whole ordeal makes me want to pull my hair out. If you Google Redline Webers the first advertisement that pops up is webercarbsdirect. You look at their website and check the FAQ's there is a link for "What is a genuine Weber?" that states the whole licensing agreement for using the Weber name as well as their trademark W. They also specifically mention North American Weber, Interco and Worldpac as genuine and all Weber labeled carburators and parts must be licensed. I have contacted my credit card company and am waiting for a response. Webercarbsdirect website states that the carburators have a one year warranty. They were purchased 5/26/14. Yes the cylinder that had no compression is the same as the faulty emulsion tube was on. Thanks to DB for his responses regarding my situation. Funny thing is I pulled off the existing carbs which were the good Italian ones after I couldn't get them to operate properly.
