[quote=”JoshMc” post=33489]The worst for me is the one I see most of the time. The job that someone else started but had no clue what they were getting into. I get a call from someone saying ” Hey Josh, how much would you charge me to change a clutch?” I give them a quote and in a few hours the vehicle gets towed in with parts all through the trunk and a 5 gallon bucket full of bolts and pieces. Then it’s my job to imagine how to put everything back together and it never fails that there is more to the story than I was told. I have learned over the years to never give an exact price when I quote a job. I always leave room for adding in for the unexpected.[/quote]
I must admit…never thought of the dreaded.. pre started job… oh yea.. they make life interesting… all the unessasry removed parts that you knew nothing about till… well ya know…and another thing.. some cutomers lie about what happin to the car….. why they gotta do that?????

random missfires can be caused by a multitude of problems..I would make sure the fuel filter is in good shape.I am unfamiliar with dodge but if they have a crank sensor check to make sure it is clean and all connections are clean also.sounds like it could be a fuel problem to me.. but like i said not much of a dodge man… but also noticed that the compression seems just a bit low… lot of miles on the engine?????
