good this was posted was gonna get my pump from ebay cheap (double check now)!!!!!!!

simply dont rush for cheapest when buying take time and read the add closely.

i've saved thousands on genuine parts from ebay.

good thing bout ebay is if add states genuine then it has to be otherwise you get refund and seller gets kicked off.
