But continually confounds me is these small issues, and it always seem to be the owner or in this case friend of owner who is trying to sort out the issue. I have no idea how this could have happened, then again I am a mechanical spastic, but why is the tuner not on here asking for assitence and learning so he/she can produce a better service?Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
