first statement on the description says mechanical secondaries. then a little farther down, it says progressive secondaries. er, uh, well ok........ Progressive linkage is common with mechanical secondaries.

It’s funny listening to guys be-itch about others buying imports as they post from there Chinese computers and cell phones. Then they warm up lunch in their Chinese microwave and watch their Chinese 200.00 TV sets. Then they go take a dump in their Chinese toilet and an afternoon nap in their Chinese bed. Hmmmm. So please tell me where to buy a non-Chinee cell phone, microwave, or computer??? I'm all ears. (yes - America crapped in it's mess kit years ago when we allowed the Chinee to take over our manufacturing............)

There is a lot of stuff that you just can't buy US made anymore. But it matters to some people and I pay attention. I'll buy a good used US made power tool off of ebay before I buy new Chinese. I fix my old US stuff rather than trash it. US made tools. Some clothes and things are made in Mexico and South America. Canada. Even India, Europe and South East Asia. I even bought a used Honda that was too good of a deal to refuse. I try to only send money to places that aren't obviously plotting to destroy and conquer us, haven't stolen all of the designs and tech, and whose level of acceptable quality isn't complete garbage..
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

I find it enlightening - with the current flu virus outbreak in China, there are factories shutting down, markets in near panic, people angry that they may not be able to get their new Apple phone or Chinese made crap since the whole country is on lockdown. How stupid are we to allow ourselves to become so dependent on a hostile foreign country for our cheap manufactured crap? What happens if and the flow of China made stuff suddenly stops?

I think $ 200.00 for that carb is too much. I would think more like 100.00 As far as Medications, I hear they have some great " research " chemicals and Fentanyl. And, I can get counterfit Shonen Knife Cd's for 20 cents each, beven has a label that looks good. And if we had american workers building a 60 inch tv for 500, and the chinese one is 20.00 less, you would save your 20,00 and go chinese. If the counterfeit CDs don’t work they are worth every penny!
