Wow. I feel for you on this. Painful lesson. I hope you are able to recover some money through legal action from the previous shop. I think I can tell what shop you are working with now. You're in good hands.

Take a look at the fuel pump assembly that was just removed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cHS...ature=youtu.be

The Rywire harness was also removed and inspected. Grounds for the ignition coil on the front rotor were never grounded(eyelets showing no scoring) and others were piggybacked off each other. I just have no words anymore.

If anyone knows any mechanically inclined lawyers please lmk.

Wow man. I have followed this thread for awhile and am sorry to hear all this. I feel like I got scammed pretty bad not too long ago. It sucks. I wish you the best going forward!! I don't know any attorney in that area.
