Hope the *beep* gets whats coming to him, And your right. Doeskin matter if it was a nizpro engine or a atomic engine. No mechanic any where takes responsibility, They just rely on you knowing nothing about cars -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

possum Donating Members 553 Member For: 15y 7m 20d Gender: Male Posted 25/03/12 08:03 AM Share Posted 25/03/12 08:03 AM Nizpro did that once, and rebuilt the engine stronger and more powerful over a weekend. that's a business that owns up and turns a negative to a positive.Keen to see the result of this. Hope the *beep* gets whats coming to him, And your right. Doeskin matter if it was a nizpro engine or a atomic engine. No mechanic any where takes responsibility, They just rely on you knowing nothing about cars -.-Did you not read a couple of posts above you? a lot of mechanics don't seem to realise that owning up to a mistake and rectifying it can actually promote your business as genuine and honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take back what I said about all mechanics I was wrong in saying that. But there are a lot of cowboys out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
