Yesterday I had a bloke bring over a couple of mowers with Quantam motors on them, he wanted a few repairs done on them and maybe I could check the oil, says they were running fine.I put the first one up on the bench to drain the oil and not one drop came out and likewise with the second one. I'm not going to even bother going any further with them, not worth wasting good oil in them, but he is happy to drive around in a new ute but couldn't spend a few dollars on some oil for his mowers.
This bloke came over last week with a chainsaw he wanted me to repair, one of the bar studs was stripped and he wanted the chain sharpened. I asked him if it ran and he said it ran fine. He picked it up yesterday and he asked if I had started it to test it. I said I hadn't because he had told me it ran fine. Then he asked me how to start it. I guess it is all in the day of dealing with the public
