Interesting video from Eric O, using the Pico for an issue with after market parts and timing on a Honda.

Good video I also just found his channel. Makes you think about using aftermarket parts on bigger jobs. I know the after market timing belt tensioners on these do not do well.

It does. I always wonder about some of those timing kits you can buy. They're aftermarket, but they say the components are made by the company who makes the OE stuff.

The part I wonder about is, are the components made to the same spec as what that company sold to the OE, or is it made to a lower level to sell to the aftermarket?

yea ive heard some people say that stuff from World pac even though it say OE it isn't true OEM. That's what I prefer to use but im sure there might be some truth to that.
