Hi,

I'd like to know more of the story about why these new, no name 016 and 020 air meters are suddenly showing up on Ebay for $25 to $30. It seems strange that someone would invest in tooling for a product who's market is disappearing.

Is it possible that Bosch, not selling many anymore, would sell the tooling to their Chinese contractor and make a little money before the product becomes obsolete ?

I have no complaints with the $8 CPS, the $11 FPR, or the $9.89 Apex in-tank pump that have all been in my daily driver for several years now. I bought them expecting they would fail so that I could say "Ah Ha!", but no such luck.

Peter
