I wonder if that's really going to work that way.
The way I see it now, a third party (a COMMERCIAL party) makes a report on
the work and cash flow of a company, the company involved pays for this.
Then this report is sent to a committee to evaluate the report, and they
decide whether or not this company is going to get this certificate.
No member of this committee will check the company involved out personally,
and I doubt they will really, because this must be a month work at least.
So if you have the right company who makes the report, and you pay them
well, you're bound to get this certificate..

No one dares to say Tomos makes crappy products..
Which parts do they produce for Sachs? The Sachs two-wheel division was
sold to S-ram in 1996.
This company did not sell any moped parts up until now, who manufactures
these Sachs mopeds?

I never have changed the manifold, I like the one used now too much.
The carburettor was terrible to access on the old models with the short
manifold.
In my opinion, the optimal tune-up would be an old manifold, new reed valve
and the old straight exhaust pipe used in the 70's which now is made in
Portugal (Jamarcol)
To be honest, I must mention that I never swapped reed-valves between
different models..
Cheers,
