Kudos to TDR Member, John Strenkowski

[TDRadmin]

I received the following letter this morning. A huge thank you goes out to John Strenkowski and all of the rest of you who help each other out:



July 9, 2002



Robert:



just wanted to take a second and let you know about an outstanding member of the TDR. recently my vacuum pump seal started leaking on my '97 truck.



After pulling apart the assembly, and reading the posts on the website, I headed to the seal house. No luck. even though I live in the fourth largest city in the Nation, they would have to order the seal. (and they didn't seem very happy about that) I explained how important it was that I had the seal by Tuesday. unfortunately, I no longer trust 18 year olds behind the counters to understand what I was saying. after returning home I found a post by John Strenkowski stating that he also sold the seal. I

e-mailed John and asked him if he would sell me a seal, but I needed it overnighted to me so I could have it by Tuesday. ( I have a car race this weekend and the Dodge is my tow vehicle. ) John called me at work yesterday to say that he was headed to the UPS office and would drop the seal in an overnight letter envelope.



Turns out, he has to drive about 20 miles to the UPS office. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.



John doesn't know me from Adam, but was willing to drive out of his way to help me with my plight. later he e-mailed me the tracking number. it's nice to belong to an organization with such helpful members.

I've posted here before that if TDR ever had the top 10 most helpful/valued members that John (CPFF) would by far get my vote for #1. His efforts designing, building and distributing the 12 valve KDP jig basically for free are outstanding. Thanks again John!

CPFF is the man!

I feel priviliged to live 15 minutes away. And he has helped me plenty.



Kudos John...

John and his wife Virginia are 2 of the nicest people i know. I just ordered a TON of oil from them today. Every time i order i get my products in no more then 2 days. John also makes the nicest Bypass mount/hose/blockadaptor i have ever seen, a work of art. They are always nice to talk to at the local meets here in the North East. I look forward to seeing them again soon.

Well is CPFF John or Jayson, the site seems to have the name Jayson associated with the guy that sells the installation kit for the bypass filter setup.



Cheers,
