Sterling is a craftsman and is the only person I know off that is building one off Nikki carburetors. I say just be patient the guy will do right.

 

It was posted he closed up for awhile in one of the other threads but was going to fulfill the orders placed.

When and if he comes back I hope its with a few prebuilt and is able to send them out once he gets a good core in from the customer. Good carbs (I had one, almost two). One day I will have another one and will be able to enjoy it.

 

19 months, no carb, no refund, no emails. I don't think it would be politically wise to comment more.

 

Happy anniversary! 2 years no emails, carb or refund.

 

f#@kin....i am sorry this guy ripped you off...

 

Happy anniversary, 3 years, no carb, no emails. He came back on the forum a few months ago and said he'd make good. Then disappeared again. I'm getting tired of posting so unless you see an update just assume it was a total ripoff. By the way, at least 4 other guys got the shaft too.

 

Man I really hate to hear it... good luck brotha

 

anyone new doing 12A carbs?

 

Holy crap batman, that is way too long!!!! I had to wait 7 months and stayed on him to get that one but had to fix it myself. I heard all the same family issues way back then so I hope its true and not a lie. My 2nd one I had to get the rotary car club web site owner to get my money back (fundraiser). He told me one day he will make good to me but im sure that will never happen.
I really hope he has closed shop and is not taking anymore orders from anyone for now until he can get you all taken care of.

Good thing for me is I had found a Paul Yaw carb and loved it. I had a spare Yaw carb but sold it a few months ago, probably should have kept that one. Now I dont have any carb'ed rotary motors.

 

I have a bunch of carbs in my race spares and on spare engines, that I am finally going thru. I have YAW,ISC, and Sterling units. Are there any distinguishing features or "autographs" to identify an original without paperwork or actually purchasing from one of those guys?

 

Thanks for warning--good luck hunting it down.

 

So who is the new carb king on this forum?

Anyone offer the service with reliable references?
