Like you Hugh, I've been frequenting this board since 1998 and have watched the dealer debate come and go a number of times with different players. I am fortunate in the fact that my dealer is less than 3 miles away and have bought parts at the same counter from some of the same men for 30 plus years. In that time, I can only remember parts failing a couple times and even then, it was handled with no questions asked. Most dealers also handle aftermarket (Tisco, Valubilt...ect) as well. When restoring older tractors first got popular, there was a period of time that I felt IH was always too high on any parts that even might be used on a collector tractor and they forced many people into the aftermarkets arms. It was only then that they got their prices back in line. As to carb kits, its my thoery that the viton tip has been the best thing to ever happen to parts makers and the worst for tractor owners. Years ago, there wasnt NEARLY as many carb kits being bought and installed as there is today. I'm sure some of it is the quality of gas and another portion is the number of people doing it for their first time and not getting it right. Any thoughts?
