I think your right about most all. I'd never do work that wasn't estimated and authorized.
I will comment on the carb. I think they could be correct in their ethanol answer.
I've had more ppl with flooding problems in the past 2 years than all the years combined. Something about this crap gas they sell us that float needles/petcocks don't like.
Fuel must be shut off. And if sitting, the carb drained.
Stabil/seafoam is a must for any quad that's going to sit.
I'd still rag on the shop tho.

 

I've had the same gas in my tank for over 4 months and it's running perfect-
but I don't have a carb-

 

I knew I was wrong..I don't know what I was thinking. The gas now days is better than ever, no problems. <EG>

I'll ask the wife about this. She knows everything.

ya ya ya, we all know that EFI is best.
A customer has a 700 grizzley efi. Runs great. Now if he could get that pesky grinding noise out of his gearbox..LOL

 

..... just say'in

 

Gald you vented, hope you feel better. But that really sucks.

 

I feel better knowing that I'm not crazy, seems like yall agree that I have a valid reason to be upset. But I still have a leaky carb, a broken bolt and a leaky axle seal lol
