This has been eating at me since January. I had a motor I was going to use in my truck in the event I through a rod. The motor was from a guy who said it was a 22,000 motor. I bought a lot of parts off of him and everyone or these parts was clean. From unused top end kits to kennebells to trannys to the motor. Anyways I sold it to the customer shipped it out and the shop he was working for was installing the motor because he had popped his motor in the cold. I sold him the motor the way I got it. I turned the motor over by hand and it was not seized up.
Anyways I told the mechanics to check everything before they installed the motor. They did not. So that said they put the motor In the truck. It had a miss. So they checked the motor and the number 7 exhaust valve was stuck open. According to the shop it wasn't bent but just stuck open. Regardless it don't matter what it.So here is where I come in. Customer calls me and asks what can we do I say let's see what they say. So I call them they quote me 1900 and they quote him 1600for the head repair. I told the customer I'll pay for half of that no big deal. Anyways 2 months go buy. I get on Facebook just from some random nerve. There it says 2700 dollars. Well long story short I paid for half the bill like I promised. Now I'm busting my ass off to make up the 1350.
I sold a used motor and I paid for the repair . I lost money on the sale including shipping. Plus I'm out the money I paid for the motor.
Sorry it's been on my head for too long.
