Terms & Scheduling

Schedule

Performance Oriented will provide an estimated schedule of completion along with the written project cost estimate. Work on the project is initiated only after the customer provides an "Authorization to Proceed" of the submitted cost estimate. Delays in receipt of the "Authorization" may result in revised schedules.

Preparation and Shipping

Customer is responsible for careful packaging of their carburetors for delivery to Performance Oriented. Packaging recommendations are provided for in the "Standard Shipping Instructions" below with packaging photographs. Customer is responsible for incomplete or lost components and in-transit damage during shipping. Customer shall pay actual return shipping charges based upon shipping preferences.

Standard Shipping Guidelines These guidelines are intended to help prepare your Weber carburetors for safe transport to Performance Oriented. If you have questions regarding these instructions please contact us via email (info@PerformanceOriented.com or telephone 530-899-8371.) Drain fuel Remove float well drain plugs and hold carb body (horizontal with drain holes down) to allow fuel to escape. Remember to catch fuel in a tray and NO SMOKING! Actuate the throttle lever to pump fuel from the accelerator circuit. Hold carb body in several orientations (sideways, right-side-up, up-side-down, etc.) while actuating the lever. CAUTION: Do not use compressed air to blow through fuel delivery passage ways or float bowl venting ports or you WILL destroy your brass fuel floats! Wrap each carburetor in plastic or zip-bag it. Surround each body with crushed newspaper or "popcorn" and place into a single box; popcorn is preferable. Tape these two boxes together to become one larger package. Place special instructions and shipping information in envelope and attach to the inner box assembly with tape. This precaution will help your Webers complete their journey in case the exterior shipping information is lost in transit. Place the resulting package into a larger box and surround it with "popcorn" or crushed newspaper; popcorn is preferable. When packaged in the above fashion the shipping weight will be around 18 pounds. Place a second mailing address on the exterior of the large box in case the primary shipping label is damaged in transit. Request for signature upon receipt so you are sure the carbs have been delivered to and received by Performance Oriented. Don't forget insurance if desired. Shipping via UPS is preferable; if not then ship by FedEx. Shipping address: Performance Oriented 2776 Alamo Aveenue Chico, California 95973 530.899.8371 Please contact Performance Oriented via email prior to shipment! These instructions minimize many shipping related damages that occur when poorly packaged carburetors poke their vulnerable bits through the walls of cardboard boxes or damage each other due to lack of isolation. Also, fuel draining and plastic bagging is IMPORTANT! I was obligated to drive 120 miles round trip to pick up a shipment from the USPS due to fuel leakage. Thank you, Paul Abbott Performance Oriented
