Yep, I=E2=80=99m in the same boat you are. Wishbone has provided great =

the internet is loaded with similar stories to yours, and I=E2=80=99ve =

like you and I have.
My advice to anyone would be that there=E2=80=99s a risk in ordering =
anything custom or sending in parts/engines for rebuilding. Ordering =
off the website, probably ok if you don=E2=80=99t need technical =

communications, until suddenly they didn=E2=80=99t. Heck of a way to =
run a business.
