Just an fyi on wacker engines: I spoke to Mr Faith a couple weeks ago and he was telling that due to flood damage this summer at his place, his production items are on a slowed down pace. He did tell me that he would get back up to speed after the first of the year though. Sounds like he lost some good machinery due to the high waters and just hasent recovered from it all yet.
He still had some parts for sell though Give him a shout on the landline- he is a pleasant guy to deal with and as W8ye stated, he's always ready to answer your questions
