Is my mechanic talking bo**ocks?

Yesterday, gave them the keys and just said sort it out it's your fault! Ready today, drove it home ok, we'll see what happens!


'Mechanic' said the choke blew a fuse???! Mmmmmm.

If that is true I would go straight to trading standards and get them involved. That way you might get a full refund of your expenses so far.

I haven't had to pay for any extra work. The only possible connection from the choke to the leccy system I could think of was a carb-heater thingy. I'll give it a run-in over the weekend and see if it keeps its charge.

If they haven't charged you for any of this I wonder what the point of the runaround is.


Take it somewhere else for an assessment and get a quote for the work.

Forks, brake pedal, bars were the original work done (last weekend) after waiting a month for them to order the right parts, the electrical stuff just happened when I got it back off them! Just annoyed that they somehow stuffed the electrics when they had no reason to touch them. They changed the fuse and it seems to work OK now. Oh well, you live and learn! I'd just like some kind of explanation from them as to what happened that didn't sound made up on the spot!

Oh, my battery covers missing! They must have taken it for a memento?
