The sad thing is, I've asked 3 other dealers to quote on things and I'm sti(h)l waiting weeks later.

I now drive from Narangba to Childers to get my 2 stroke machines serviced /repaired = 6 hrs round trip. Same with our B&S genny, apparently too hard to work on, Errol took 2 days to repair and service all the equipment and then showed me why my Stihl was dead, 3 times it went in for not starting and the last time they asked me not to bring it back, seems that the conrod just got lazy and bent and was too tired to straighten itself up.
Stihl equipment never again, I'll stick with Honda. BTW, I'm a diesel mechanic and have always and will alway refuse to work on 2 stroke machines.
