I cannot say enough good things about this place. They have stood behind what I bought from them and just stand up guys. Would not hesitate one bit to buy anything from them, or have them service my equipment

Had great conversation with Jim, he directed us to the correct problem and saved me at least a thousand dollars or more on a backfiring onan motor. I know someday it will have to be repowered, Thanks to Jim and the group the onan p218g will live for a couple more years keeping my 318 original.
