What do you feel are the major contributor to these failures? I'm just curious, but have these motors always had these problems, or did they surface due to any particular enhancements?
The demand for roller lifters seems to be presented as a way to cut costs. Could the same argument be made to take a step back to simpler times?
I'm not picking. I respect you and know that you work hard.
