There's a lot of other web pages out there, and it's easy to punch in "fake walbro fuel pumps" into a Google search.
This is not hearsay.
It's been know for a few years now.

Interesting. Thanks for the links!
Anybody have internal pics of fake vs. real walbros? That link is surprisingly sparse of what I would call real evidence of inferior quality. It basically says, "if its cheap, its likely a fake" and as for how to determine whether its fake: "get a vendor promise" -- sounds more like a vendors emotional marketing appealing to patriotism than actual scientific evidence of quality.
Don't take this the wrong way, but hearsay is information gathered by Person A from Person B concerning some event, condition, or thing of which Person A had no direct experience ("he said she said"). All I meant is that I have no direct experience with fakes, what may be sufficient evidence to you of conspiracy is just hearsay to me.
Maybe Glen at AZRR can respond to the origins of this pump. Walbro's probably just a phone call away too. I have no problem giving them a call and seeing whats up.
