What was the brand name of these ME built machines? What are the machine model numbers? This post just sounds like a lot of BS to me.

If you disassemble the machines and sort them you will realize more in scrap value. Sort the cast iron from the heavy steel, if there is any, sheet metal separate, copper separate, aluminum separate and so it goes. Keep all of the nonmetallics out of it also.
Spark Plugs ?? I knew it Briggs&Stratton have took over the world in heavy equipment power ....
I dont recall anything in the forum rules against discussion of a machines pros or cons or the mention of brand names. Its done here on a daily basis, otherwise why have a forum about heavy equipment?
2 weeks ago I had to travel from the U.K. to Hong Kong to do a job, when in Hong Kong I bought some Wood Screws and a Saw plus a few bags of cable ties (Zip Ties), I cut up 3 small bits of their Hong Kong crappy ply sheet, and the saw was blunt, I then tried to screw in the wood screws only to find the heads fell off the screws, I wish I had bought nails??, then I came to use the zip ties, the large ones just seemed to snap off or fall to short pieces, they were to brittle, the thin ties were like elastic bands as you pulled on them they stretched like cling film, my thoughts on China is everything has a crappyness to it, the food was crap the Hotel was Crap (paper thin walls) I would be not keen to buy sweet #/# from ting tong.
going back out in a few weeks sadly tctractors
I believe you could post anything that can be substantiated by facts. You have some photos or perhaps some corroborating witness statements and I don't believe anyone will complain. Most would praise you for informing all to the hazards.
I work in the State of Washington and get around it about as much as anyone. So far I haven't seen any machines made in Egypt, Pakistan or anywhere else in that part of the world make to this state.
If they are as bad as you state they would never pass the EPA regulations for the engine emissions and I am absolutely certain they would not get through the ports in Washington state without the proper certifications and paper work.
A brand name and a photo would bolster your claims.

I didn't see any Dozers are Excavators on their website.Like you say just tractors.Only one I seen for Construction was the Marooka and I have used them.Good machines too.After some searching on the internet I found both companys. Millat is a Pakistan company building tractors under license from Massey Fergson and ITMCo is a company in Iran building tractors under license from Massey Fergson.
Here is a link to ITMCo construction equipment showing the product line http://www.itimco.ir/Default.aspx
After a quick look at their machine specs I see they use Yanmar, Perkins and Cat engines along with Danfoss hyds. I dont see them being too funky of a machine.
