actually i did. all the points. i could rake 3 shops in tacoma over the coals. without mentioning names. one had their weber "ace" install a set of carbs w/ a facet fuel pump and did not use a fuel preasure reg. over drove the float valves got about 0 miles to the gal. then they tried and did charge for a $30 oil change for fuel contaminated oil. 2, major shift prob in the old tailshifter. charged major dough to tell me i needed either a. a new clutch or b. a new tranny or c. new linkage that they just happened to have or d. all above, it was the or, or, or, part that got me. it was a STINKING ROLL PIN, the pin, a gasket, gear oil and a halve hour. that i figured and fixed myself by looking at a exploded parts diagram. i demanded a bill adjust. they said no, things got heated. they called the police. officer POLITELY told me to leave. once out side he told me to call the credit card co or my bank, it was not the first time they had been there for this type of situation. i disallowed the charge they threatened to sue i said "see you in court". the cowards did'nt have the balls to do it. 3. on a different car (type 3 w/fi) dif shop, a $100 diag. to tell me my whole fi need to be replaced. they said the car did'nt warrant the expence, but they would buy it from me, trigger points that's all it was.
the 12 month/ 12k is the biggest load of ****e in the world. if you only drive 2k in 1 year, too bad times up. the moral is become a informed owner, if you get dicked around by a shop and they will not make it right, they had best be prepared to have their work and their customer service out there for review and comment.
