Import Engine - Orlando, FL

Import Engine - Orlando, FL .. their work is unacceptable ...

Thinking about my bus and the shop that did me so wrong has me tossing and turning all night. From 3:00 am to 5:30 am this I spent gathering thoughts. All the advice here has been great, but it really doesn't help right now because the main problem is that this whole MESS has me more angry at myself than the dirt-bag who ripped me off and will continue to do so until I stand up to him and tell him that his engine and his work is unacceptable.

I could send letters ... take him to court .. I could get the work re-done .. inspected .. bring a friend .. I could do all sorts of things, but none of them will make me feel better until I make myself feel better by telling him that woman or no, I will not accept what he has done to me.

So when I finish this email I should be finished with my coffee and cigarette and ready to jump in the shower. Going to get there bright and early and BE A MAN .. I am going to ask for the parts that were replaced because any man would do the same. Case and fuel sending unit .. I will tell him what VW has told me, that the case is leaking .. I will tell him that I don't believe that he did anything more than put a bandaid on the problem and I am giving him the opportunity to make things right. Get that mustache bar OFF and fix the broken whatever it was the right way. The way it should have been before he put the engine in.

The way I see it, he has 3 choices.

1) Re-do the rebuild and do it right this time. a) I have the engine inspected when he takes it out. b) I want to have the insides inspected before they go back in. c) I want to keep any replaced parts. d) I want my PAID FOR new muffler. e) And when this is all done, I do not need any friggin warranty from him, because he will never see me again.

2) Give me back my $600 and my 71 bus .. take his engine and shove it ... I will tow my bus home.

3) I will see him in court.

I will warn him that if he raises his voice I will leave and come back with the police to finish what I have to say.

So wish me luck ya'll ..

Diane

Good luck! Try to control your temper or you'll only be bringing yourself closer to his level. He doesn't sound like he's worth it to me.

But I'm already *below* his level. ;-) That's the difference.

Good luck. be firm, but not aggressive. Keep the horizontal bar under the engine, it's something that's nice to have, and certain models require it too. Not sure what years. The ones that do need one, have a sturdy factory brace. The ones that don't have one from the factory, don't necessarily need one but it helps eliminate engine&tranny rocking.

I would suggest that if he refuses to put anything right, have something pretyped, and get him to sign to that effect?...I am assuming that you dont think he will become aggressive to you? At least if you then state your terms, and he signed, in effect, to say bog off, you have it in writing that he refuses to rectify his mess, and he wouldnt have a leg to stand on in court. If all that fails, well, find a big friend, and make sure he doesnt have a "leg to stand on" in future :)

Diane, Could you perhaps post your full name? I am in Florida every few years and I don't want to take any chances of crossing you. Just looking out for my health : )
