Hey Richie,
If you haven't yet, you need to report the shop to the BBB.

Or report him to the general manager, if I told my service manager about it he would flip, but the last thing you want an an angry mechanic working on your car. You could approach the service manager about it, and maybe get it redone for free from someone else.

meth is safe, the guy at my work with the near 500 HP evo uses 100% meth all day long, no problems. You just have to buy the right kit and watch your gauges. I had mine hooked to the washer bottle. Debris got into the bottle becuase the lids dont like staying shut and it clogged the nozzle. Then BOOM!

We are gonna report him. I tried talking with him through text. He's being stubboron and blaming me for poor instructions and bad communication. I don't even want him touching the car now for safety of him not ******* more **** up. I just don't trust anyone there anymore. I'm gonna do this myself like I should have in the fisrt place

FML! My tv just has a line of deal pixels. I bought it back in july of 09 and boom it just happened this afternoon. Called vizio they said no problem, just show the receipt except I dont have it anywhere. I called them again so I can prove the purchase with a bank statement.

Oh I'm so sad, so beautiful 1080p and its ruined with a ******* yellow line

**** luck man! Did you order the part?


Update: I should be getting the final parts to my engine. New rod bearings, tranny and head guides, and TOB should be in today. I cant wait!!!! Only thing I am worried about is putting the drive chain back on. I took a **** load of pictures but the build book says there is colored links on the chain for the balance shaft to be rotated properly but the only colored links there are is on the timing chain... Anybody have input on what to do about that? or how to install correctly?
