Thats a very good point...! What if he wiped it out on a speed hump, dropped all his oil and then totally lunched the whole engine...?

Maybe they dropped the sump plug into the bucket. Decided to find something to plug the hole whilst taking the oil pan to find sum plug and the spark plug was the perfect fit.

Taken oil pan to drain to find the sump plug only to see it fall into massive drum of oil. Phone rings a few times, boss is screaming that he needs the host and how long does it take to change oil.

Employee decides to tighten spark plug (correct torque settings of course) and fill oil in attempt to discredit boss.

My theory anyway...

This is shit we have all forgoten things but to fit a spark plug as a sump plug. Even if you droped the plug in the drain tin just pick it up or place another tin under the drips and drain the oil from the tin with the plug in it. This (mechanic) needs to recheck the car and then tell his boss why its back and tell him whagt he did i dont think he will be there long if his nogt gone already. Happy hunting, let them have it i know i would.

Thanks heaps guys for the support :D god knows i need it, coz my little saga gets worse.....

here goes.......

along with fixing my idle problem i had a leaky sump bolt, so they thort they would fix it for me. They thort they would helicoil a new thread in using a particular thread pitch and size 14 by 1.25, this size ONLY, im mean only comes in spark plugs, no compamy makes a bolt in this size it has to be custom made.

so i have to retap it AGAIN to a lagrer size :ermm:

THE EXSUCE - the mechanic who works on my car asked one of coworkers to plug it with something thats fits, and then forgot about it. He says they took his words too literaly to plug it. He was there when the car went out but didnt check it.

all i have to say it PET/GTECH in cambellfeild suck dont go there, im sure there are lots of happy customers but im not one of them.

i dont want to have anything to do with them, no agro no yelling, id rather spend my time with people who give a sh#t about what they do and how they do it, there not worth my time and effort.

they have done some top work for me but this was just down right careless.
