    I ordered 4 of that brand from Amazon couple years ago to put on my dd trailer and they sent 3 of the correct and 1 wrong bag , which was for the KW 8 bag system. They sent me a return label although I never got around to returning it. Tried to pawn it off on @Lysdexis since he needed one at the time but ended up getting rid of his kw before i could get it to him.. still got it at the house if anybody needs one..
    I had also got good use out of the ones I put on my trailer. No problems at all would buy them again

    Welp update on the cut off timing pin. He got it out. He was able to take his engine turning tool and rotate the flywheel backwards which bent it some. He then drilled said tool and tapped 1/4 inch threads and screwed a bolt in them. He was prying with a heel bar on the bolt head while his wife pulled on the long ratchet. It’s reported she broke a nail and now fully understands why mechanics cuss so much. Turns out he didn’t need me at all just some southeastern Kansas crafty bastardness

    Most days I’m thankful that I can fix, modify, and maintain this rig, but some days I think it would be simpler if I didn’t know how. :cool:

    Maybe simpler but a whole lot more $ out the door and most of the time you would not be happy with the work of someone else.
