[s-cars] re:Timing Belt Kit

[Joel Rector]

  I haven't started it yet.  I sent Scott (SJM) an email asking how I
could buy just the o-ring for the water pump so I'd have it when I tore
it apart just in case.  He sent me back an email  only a couple of hours
later saying that one was on it's way and it would be there in a couple
of days.  He also said that if I found that it was I who had damaged the
old o-ring during installation, he'd just charge me $10 extra (to cover
the UPS 2 day shipping on the new o-ring) on my next order.   Most
places wouldn't just leave it up to you like that, the honor system, and
waiting for my next order, even though it is only 10$.

That's quick turnaround and more than fair!  That's one more reason to
buy from SJM.

I'll post to the list when I get the water pump leak figured out.

Thanks,

Joel Rector
