Core Returns

For your core return to be acceptable, West Coast Governor Service will only accept the exact same brand and model number propeller governor (or Constant Speed Unit or Overspeed Governor) as the one you purchased. The core being returned must be in overhaulable condition.

Cores returned must be complete and “AS REMOVED” from the engine on which they were operating.  Returning an incomplete and/or damaged core or a core different from the model/part number of the governor requested in exchange will result in deductions from the core deposit.  Some cores may be unacceptable and may be of zero value as a core. Cores that are damaged, antiques, red tagged, beyond tolerances, not of the appropriate model/part number, have major parts missing, or that do not have data plates, for example, may be rejected and will be returned to the customer at the customer’s expense AND written request.  WCGS will dispose of such governors unless the customer pays to have it returned within 30 days.
