It's part profit, part covering those times where you get a bad part and have to re-do the work. You gotta pay to piper if you can't do the work yourself. And by the sounds of it you're not too auto-tech savvy, which is ok. At least now you found a guy to trust to some degree, which is 80% of the battle IMO.
I honestly cannot believe he changed a fuel pump on request with no diagnostic time. That so puts the garage in a no win situation. FWIW, I'd have told you to pound salt. Did he tell you if that didn't fix the issue you were SOL?

yeah i mean hes ok.. but like i said in the original post .. this places is in glassboro and im from oldbridge thats like a good 80 miles lol i only had work done there cause i had no choice... i have a guy in new brunswick that is my regular mechanic ..
and what happened was i told him that since firestone did a diagnoses and said it was the fuel pump there was no need for him to do it (which was a risk ofcouse) and yeah he told me that if that wasnt the problem.. then it wasnt his problem..
he kept it pretty honest id say.. i was expecting the worst and made out in the end... overall anways
today was a whole nother adventure .. i dont even feel like getting into... about just getting the car back down there with the tow trucks..
but thanks again guys
