 Hard Learned Lesson !!Starting having issues with my ProDrive about a month ago. I dropped off at reputable small engine dealer / shop in Tyler Texas. $700 later my boat is still not running correctly! Runs worse actually!!! Shop wants more money to look at it. I'm not completely alien to working on engines but thought it would be more convenient during the season. Long story short ........ check references before you take you MM to a lawnmower shop!!

Re: Hard Learned Lesson !! My LT engine was acting up. I tried to take it a repair shop in the town I was living in;
The repair guy was happy to look at it...The owner of CTE small engines came out from the back and said "This looks like a homegrown piece of crap and I have no desire to work on that." I said well its not, you can find them on the internet...but whatever asshole Started reaching for my weed eater, on the counter;... and he said "oh we'll work on that" I looked at him said no you wont...and walked out the door. _________________ Bobcat Mag 1 Pirogue with paddle Brother Breaux 16x36 with a 23 GDLT |
