Does this come with any attachment to finding Carrier Parts/tools, as part of the sale. Have we not done business before? Robert

It should have the words "HEAVY VEHICLE TYPE" On the label just above the pyrene insignia.

You are absoloutly right it "may" be whatever your flavour is. Since the ad was for a MV a vehicle type firex would be expected. Not one for a kitchen.
