Hey guys just wanting to see if anyones got any sugestions on what should happen. Well I got a motor fully built to spec by a guy who has a business he runs out of home which I wont name.he did everything on it such as rebuilding,sourcing parts,welding,modifying things etc.i got the car back from him an he mentioned car had excessive smoking after first startup. I then took it directly to my tuner which the builder said and I followd instructions.we then run it in on dyno for awhile after a week or so at tuners wrkshop we decided to fix the minor exhaust leak on manifold so we took manifold off and discovered ezcessive amounts of oil.we then contacted the builder to say hey weve got a possible stem seal leak and will warranty cover it, he kept humming and harrong as id understand bein a bisness one one wants to do free labour. I ask another guy who is a head specialist who the builder took my head to to get assembled and he said yup heil fix the head as long as the engine builder would take it out of the car for him he will fix it free pf charge but latet on that day the specialist rang me saying the builder ask him for money to do it and then he asked me I said u should cover it which he said no. Later on I rang consumer council and they said he should fix if not I have a good chance of winning a court case but he was good to me on my previous engine so I ddnt want to go down that track. Aftr a month of disagreements he said dont go down that track so bring it around and heil fix it. I said ok ive recently gone for a wof and I had a list of things to do majority of them wer small things such as light bulbs ,headlight align,seatbelt replacmnt etc and ill let hom fix all those pronlems ONLY IF HE FIXS THE VALVE STEM SEALS to help him out finacally and he agreed. So I dropped car off to him around xmas time. I txted him numerous times times hows the update on the car especially asking about the valve stems several times over the 2 months he had the car and he never mentioned the stems aftr measking him time after time. He then emailed me saying he wants close to a grand (1000) for the wof jobs. I said sweet ok until I found out he ddnt do the stems as he said hes tested it and theres nothing wrong I said ok write it on paper and everythng will be sweet he then refused to do so so I said there oviously not fine if your not confident enough to write on paper an we kept arguing about the problem with no resolution he then said ive got the car stored at my girlfriends amd u cant see it till your paid in full to his banl acc and I said ok I want to see car firat and he said I cant do that an I said I have the right to kno wea my car is and he kept saying I cant tell u wea it is.it sounded quite dodgy to me hence the reason I ddnt pay at that time and he kept sayn he wont tell me wea it is. I never said I wont pay but I gave him thos jobs only if he was doin the stems if he didnt do stems he should have told me first amd I would have grabbed the car asap and took else where to this day I have no idea wheee the car is has anyone got any suggeations? Thanks for reading?
