Engine on the Floor @ Chevy

Dec 21, 2004 1 Replies

When I picked up my front brake hoses last week there was a dirty / filthy engine sitting on the floor over at one of the goodwrenches stalls.



Harryface - Hey whats that doing there !?



Goodwrench - ( Grinning ) Its a Jiffy Lube engine.



Harryface - Where's the car at ?



Goodwrench - Out back sitting till the new engine arrives.



Harryface - Jesus Christ !


I didn't even bother asking what kind of car or how old it was. Maybe next visit I'll ask.

I've seen that happen before. Fill the oil, drive off. Call back b/c the red light on the dash won't go off, start to turn around......

GM dealer installs new motor & makes sure that oil filter is on tight. Odd how a little thing like that can cause problems ;-)

even with synthetic oil no less !
