It is not uncommon for a Company not to answer an Email for 2 days.

If you fell you have been duped contact your Credit Card Company or PayPal (if you used PayPal).

Also Frypower seldom comes up on this Forum. I have not read any issues about them.
There might be more info on this company in the Alternative Fuel section of the Forum.

Please note that and order that passes through USPS, UPS or FEDEX can get lost or damaged during shipment. You may naver know if Frypower or the Shipping Company is causing the problem if there is no Tracking Number.

As an asside I am having an issue with an Ebay Seller. The Seller never responded with ask if the order was shipped. I could not do anything until the normal delivery date passed. Filed with Ebay and the Seller now shows that they got a Tracking Number Electrionically. However, when I use the tracking number it does not show that USPS accepted the Package and there is no movement from facility to facility showing either.

So I think it is likely that the Seller still has not shipped the item and is truing to dupe Me and also Ebay as Ebay is responsiable to refund Me if the Seller defaults.

The last time I heard from Jim he was working out of town. All of my past experiences have been positive; you might want to just give him a few more days/week --- shoot him a PM and email from this forum. I don't remember his forum handle though.

Here's another forum member's experience: 99 e300d- new fuel line o-rings, how to "prime" system?

Hey everyone,
My house burnt out on the 13th of March. I'm eyes deep in dealing with that right now. I have three orders that need to go out. The good news is that no one was home and all of the viton stuff was in my truck.

As of today I have computer access, a printer, shipping envelops, and product. Look for something going out very soon, maybe even tonight.

David, thanks for the heads up and the link to this thread!

Jim

And the hits just keep coming!

I totaled my S350 Saturday. I didn't see the red light and hit a 1990 Toyota pickup on the left front wheel. I'm banged up. The other guy seemed ok.
The seatbelt and airbag did their job. They need to make an airbag for the bottom of the dash. My shins are KILLING ME!

I'll get some pictures up soon.

Insurance is totaling it and cutting me a check. Everything from the front doors back seems to be ok. The front is toast. There was oil, transmission fluid, and coolant on the ground. The engine was still running after the accident! I shut it off with the key about 10 seconds after the airbags went off. The smoke and smell spooked me and I went into autopilot. I put it in park, shut it off, took the key out, unhooked my seatbelt and got the heck out of the car.

Jim

Wow, take care of yourself. You may feel aftereffects of that collision in the days, weeks or months to come.

Sounds like it was a hard hit.

Good news is that you seem to be okay, as well as the other party.

Nightmare - hang on in there

It sounds like you are a tall chap who has his seat in a very reclined position - it sounds like the seat belt kind of held your upper body but you slid forwards and under it. Do you suffer from neck ache when driving? (That's normal driving not after a crash)
