Where is Denso made Japan?
Their headquarters were or are still there, where they get their components are like most other manufacturers, all over the place. I have had great luck with Denso starters on my diesel equipment.

I must have misinterpreted your original post: "Are you guys able to get any crap from China these days?" along with comments about buying those shameless (and ******) Hutzl rip-off's of German Stihl designs.
I'm sure we're all trying to avoid buying anything chinese... right? I went to buy a new Big Bill Hickory shirt the other day. Had it in my hand, then saw it was made in China - and put it back. The clerk must have seen my antics and asked me what was going on. When I told him, he had some great news - BigBill has already moved some of their production back to the US, and he handed me the same shirt, made in the US, for the same price. That made me happy. Then for a new pair of gloves. American Glove Company, of Dallas Oregon. I thought "Great!" and then looked inside the glove - and it was made in China. **** them! Those were put back. BOTH companies got an e-mail from me, and BigBill.com gave a nice thanks in their reply.

Many of my e-bay ads have the term "OEM, not cheap Chinese junk" or "cheap aftermarket junk". I seem to remember getting a few ads taken down because someone complained. I was against the globalist
"free trade" crap back in the late 1980s, and still am. We will pay dearly for our association and business dealings with our enemy...

I used to hear "but that's protectionism" a lot back then, and knew that they were just selling out our country for cheap labor and "no pollution" laws.

Yeah, the Chinese junk was brutal on my e-bay business. Folks could by a carb for an 029/ms290 for under $10 delivered!! Hell, even if I got the carbs for $.50, I still wouldn't make any money. They were screwing us badly on the postage too! Hopefully thinks will change.
Yes I hope the current situation wakes up people enough to realize we cant sustain they way things are now. America needs to get back to manufactured all it can right here.
If we had a real war now we'd be screwed.
How can the businesses/executives of America be so screwed up they can't supply toilet paper or detergent/bleach, given two months lead time?
Food is next. My garden starts are growing, and I plow my garden with a 2 bottom plow (big garden). I won't be hungry. In the fall canned, dried, and root cellar.
You got great instincts! I better get a garden going.

We are losing our country from within.

I noticed! It is the fault of the Demorats! They brought all the third world here just for votes!

I even planted turnips this year!! Just in case.
I bought a few extra cans of coffee, my wife asks why.

Harley, try rutabegas, giant turnips.
I've had some Stihl 029 crank seals ordered from them for two months now and they're not here yet. Had to order some more from a US vendor, overpriced but here...I had some other items ordered but the Chinese vendors just returned my money because of long shipping times or non existent shipping..
On tv I saw some nice looking dogs and cats in the Chinese wet markets. One good reason to not do business with them...
