I think after the second or third time I was misinformed, I would have turned the customer loose on them. Reminds me of an incident I had back in the dark ages. I was just cutting my teeth, so to speak, when it came to wrenching, and had the head done off my car at a local machine shop. They had a good reputation. Got it back together and it skipped.
