My vote is that the claim there are Walbro knock-offs has
merit.
As I read the information, they were first offered look-a-like
pumps which lacked the Walbro stamp for $A/unit.
Then they are advised that #342 pumps, c/w the Walbro stamp,
are available for a higher cost of $B/unit. The increase must be
non-trivial because the vendor feels compelled to justify the
difference. The vendor indicates they don't have stamped versions
of the #340 & #341 but can make them if they receive a sample.
that has elapsed, the less need to be suspicious of pumps other
than the #342.
It would be nice to see a replica beside a genuine pump, assembled
and broken down.

We just made GSS342 walbro printing pump for the moment,
it's engraving printing on the body, it's exact same as
Walbro. I will send u close pictures tomorrow. If u need
GSS340/341 engraving, pls send me one sample, we can
do that for you.
It is too bad Fuel-Pumps.Net didn't include a date. The less timeit's engraving printing on the body, it's exact same as
