TeGGeR's injector problems...

I had the Motorvac service done today by a local Canadian Tire franchise.
Stupid, stupid me. I figured, how bad could they possibly **** up something
that simple? (I've never said "****" before, have I?)

Well, the monkey they'd hired DID **** it up that bad ("but he's been a
mechanic for 15 years!").
Word to the wise: DO NOT patronize Canadian Tire. They hire the same
moronic simians AutoZone does. Y'see, AutoStupe does not do business in
Canada, so the grunting Neanderthal knuckle-draggers that happen to be
Canadian residents get jobs with Crappy Tire instead of AutoStupe.

Not only did the monkey botch the job badly, the manager gave me my money
back AND offered to pay me (at his shop rate) whatever it took me to fix my
back seat, which the monkey *really* messed up in his misguided attempt at
accessing the fuel pump. I will charge him 3 hours at $70 per hour. Let's
see how well that goes over...

WAY too much detail to write here.

The basics:

These are straight off the camera, no Photoshopping or captions. I'm too
exhausted to do that right now.

It took me two hours just to bend the back seat cushion bars straight again
so everything worked properly and there was no looseness. That back seat is
pretty flimsy. It weighs about ten pounds. It's basically a wire perimeter
with foam formed around it and a fabric skin. I must have had it in and out
at least 18 times before it fit properly again.

The monkey tried to remove the back seat to get at the fuel pump. All he
did was wreck things because he didn't know how it went together. He never
did get at the fuel pump.

Oh, and the Motorvac service? It made the vibration WORSE. We definitely
have a fuel delivery problem here.
