Super,
Thanks for writing back, and I am glad that you posted more information.
Please appreciate that people use these forums to gather information about manufacturers and products to decide if they are interested, or feel good about spending their money. I sure you do, or you would not have posted in the first place.
While everyone will agree that posting useful information (whether good or bad) is a good thing since it helps people make decisions, you will have to then appreciate the value of this information when some posts it (good or bad) on their first post.
No one wants to "experiment" with their money, and everyone wants to look at the alternatives before buying so they make the right decision for them.
I don't know anyone at Dove and don't really care what their products do. This is a matter of protocol, and if you were posting your issues as part of a build thread, or if you had at least 50 posts before slamming "any" manufacturer it would be a lot better.
I am really sorry you have had problems, and buddy I've been there (you get a sick feeling right?). Nobody likes it.
It would be great if you could hang around here on Club Cobra, and let other folks here get to know you, your build, and how you overcome the problems with this motor. I'm a business owner also, and we both overcome problems all the time
Eric
