Well got my new long block in for my motorhome and guess what?<br />They sent the wrong engine. :mad: <br />Got a 366T instead of a 454 short deck.<br />Now have to go back and have them order the right one over again. :rolleyes: <br />"We are sorry" they say, but they are not the one's having to do the work. :eek:

Nothing you can do there!<br /><br />Grin and bear it. Or better yet... Tell them to keep the damn block and order somewhere else!<br /><br />H.

Re: A lighter note(this sucks)

ya think if you pressure them for the trouble its caused you in time/scheduling - they might try to offer some fringe benefit? like %off cost, or extra engine goodies? <br />-just a thought

ebb, I think shipping the wrong thing the first few times is the norm for a lot of these outfits.

Re: A lighter note(this sucks)

Had one of them thar house things a while ago within the big motor, n missess Ross said if'n the thing shakes like the last one then she's a'commin along fur the ride. I never saw a woman so overcum by a ride on a shaking house befor.<br />I swear she let out wee yelps ever now an then!<br />If'n Daisy Mae comes 2 then maw says she'll hav ter set in the back with'n the washen machine, so's no one can C her.<br />I don't know why but they have this silly look an I reckon theys gottun a bottle ov ole glenfiddish back with un.<br />All I now is maw sur gets frisky after'n one of them all day rides, an Daisy Mae just looks plain worn out!<br />If'n you find this to be a problem when the new motor is fitted then fishin is the way to overcum it. When I gets back they've generally calmed down!!<br />Ross

Re: A lighter note(this sucks)

OBJ, try a shower, you know you can do it! Go on now give it a try.<br />Oh! Try a posy of flowers,........No not those ones........Not the ones with the wildlife either.<br />And make maws day and buy some of that fluffy toilet paper, you know, the one you write the death lists out on when you'r on the bucket!<br />You could try practicing opening the door fur her, yes even the lovely Daisy Mae likes to have her bus door held open fur her! <br />Put a sheeps skin on the seat, but make sure you remove all the fat first else it'll smell worsen your last fishin trip after the drunken romp last week!<br />By the way cousin the dogs missin an the pigs pregnant again. Funny how it's been in the pen all winter.............<br />Ross
