1004ron Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) I did a search on my past orders from Amazon and all my purchases were found in the below list, except for the Mercon LV, but that was also from a reputable seller. Some air and oil filters bought on Amazon were from Greenway Ford. I'll be paying close attention to the seller when buying on Amazon.

crocoyes8 Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 Fakes have been around a long time. Right out of tech school, I worked for a small shop. About every month, a man driving around in a van showed up and was selling counterfeit parts. Remember when the Ford ignition modules were the big aluminum boxes with different colored grommets? The ones that used to fail quite regularly? Yep, he had them. At a cheap, tempting price, I might add. The boxes had the racing Ford GT40 on the side, Motorcraft in big letters on the box, but the modules themselves were nameless, generics. We stayed away from them.
