Parts Desperation

06/05/2020 9:47 AM

I am approaching you out of desperation. I have place an order for replacement engine parts with an authorised UK distributor a month ago and am still awaiting delivery. I have looked elsewhere at other UK distributors but none in stock. It is an Italian OEM (Lombardini) which was bought out by Kohler engines USA. I have approached both Kohler and Lombardini with no response, and am advised by my UK dealer of a parts backlog. I have paid dearly in lost business, and am asking for other possible ideas toward approaches e.g. a platform that will allow my parts request to reach all possible industrial engine repairers within the UK who may have the parts I require in stock.

Your request is a bit vague. What exactly are you looking for?

I.E. small engine manufacturers buy carburetors, starters, filters from other manufacturers. With a bit more info, perhaps a solution is possible

Maybe you forgot to list the parts you need, or model number, or location...?

I can't recommend globalspec highly enough for this request.

if what you are seeking is available the way would like it from where you would like it globalspec should probably have access to it at a good cost.

Hi,

First thing, your website lights up my malware program like a Christmas tree. You might want to look into that.

Hope the above organization can help.

Good luck.
