well the good thing about that particular FPR is that its rebuildable. take the screws out of the housing, pop it apart and see if something is jammed up inside

You don't think I should just see if they'll swap it out? But in the event that they wouldnt...If I did take it apart and something was jammed, in the short period of time that I've had it,would it be worth rebuilding?
as opposed to being without one for 4-8 days?.... id spend the 10 minutes to take it apart
+1..and werent you the one who asked about the cam products? if they were any good?

I think I'll try what adder said and take it apart, if that dont work then I guess I'll have to either put the factory one back on,or wait to get another on. But that tickin sound I cant get passed. Just wonderin why the hell it would be doin that. I dont have but like 15-20 miles on the da*m thing.

this is why you dont buy junk, you could have bought an aeromotive and it would not fail on you, if it would they will replace it no questions asked. i think i payed 119.95 for it and they are top of the line.

Thats why I was asking if anyone had heard of or used any of there products. Didn't get much feed back,

ORIGINAL: AdderMk2

If nobody ever buys it, we will never know if its any good.....

it LOOKS like a decent piece, AND it comes with a pump... and gauge... i'd say go for it
Well,I took it apart,and it looks like a peice is broke on the inside...A little flat metal peice(don't know much about 'em) upload a pic in a min
