Rivets, you will not believe this one, i did what you suggested and went to my local Toro dealer, i did however walk directly to the rear service entrance instead of through the front door. I spoke with the very kind mechanic and he stated that he would check for me but i would have to go to the front desk. I said great and thank you and proceeded to the front door/desk. The counter clerk says before I even explained myself that they throw all of their old parts in the dumpster and keep nothing, just about that time the mechanic appears with the float bowl in his hand and says here is what you are looking for, yes i replied, thank you so much, the counter clerk says not anymore, as soon as you leave here I am going in the back and throwing all of that stuff in the dumpster etc etc. i said why i am just trying to keep stuff out of the landfill, he says all the manufacturers make junk today and that it is all dispossable, i say yes that is why i am fixing this Toro 1987 mower, (it is not junk) He charges me $5.30 and I happily pay him and he literaly kicks me out of the store. This particullar dealer is by far the worst customer service dealer in the country. enough said!!
