Whats a walrus and tupperware have in common?
Both like a tight seal.
I had to put this up. Its not a joke but a true story.
Had a customer come into my small motor shop the other day. He had a new water jetting machine with a twin cylinder 37hp motor. The issue was that it started Ok but as soon as it came under load it would run rough and stall. Soon found the fault, one of the HT leads had been crushed when the manufacturer had put the cover plate on and was shorting to earth.
I wrote this up for the warranty report, (the manufacturer had asked us to do this, I was not the seller). I wrote, Missing #2 cylinder,cause crushed HT lead.
The next morning the manufacturers representative in Australia, (the machine was a German branded machine) called me to ask;
1-Was the missing cylinder there but had just not been attached?
2-Had the box the machine came in been checked to see if the missing cylinder was in the packaging?
3-Exactly what was a HT lead and what was the connection between that and the missing cylinder?
The guy was dead serious. Even my missus was cracking up herself listening to the conversation and she doesn't know a lot about motors. My mechanic is still ROFL.
I was so tempted to tell him we had found hydrocarbons in the fuel tank as well.
BOXTICKERS!
What a nobhead ay! hahahahaa
... you should have told him to recommend the factory fit 3 cylinder engines so their machines have a spare if one goes missing
