The tech was told he had to pay for half the engine. He wanted to quit. But .... remarkably the shop had an insurance that paid for it all except a small deductible .... lucky guy, lucky shop!
Lebenz- I was thinking about this over the weekend working on one of the cars. Working in a shop where one's fortune is balanced against the clock, I think it is easier to make mistakes. I realize that I have done some real stupid things as well, but I have the luxury of not being on the clock.
That being said, carelessness has no excuse and certainly putting in double the amount of oil is negligent, but not double-checking the oil level prior to starting the engine is plain criminal.
