always pissing about on a weekend with injector pump, hydraulic pumps, electrical gremlins etc, be buggered if im going to fly the yellow flag if they're substandard :(
done a ktm haven't they...
Being a lifelong jcb owner until recent , you get used to constantly twiddling with them, and think it’s normal and acceptable!
I remember going to site with my 3cx strapped up in all manor of ways to keep her going and just thought that’s normal with plant.. 🫣 did a week with 1 jack leg once as it had worn through the steel hydraulic tube on the leg ram, now how the hell hadn’t jcb figured out how to stop that happening on a machine by that point they had made over 500k of?!

Just got a update from jack at hullplant who is refurbing unit, Will be another 2wks yet as one of the worst units he has seen for corrosion!

Now tell me how can this be the case with it only being under 2 yr old (80hrs) and It has been stored in w/shop majority of its life with me from new 🤷‍♂️🤯
Guys!! Am I right to be pissed that it is now 9wks since Engcon unit went to get refurbished and still no sign of it arriving?? Except for the continuing next wk bull s**t…..🤬

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
I'd be contra-charging against the eventual invoice - 2-3 weeks is far more than needed - they're just taking the piss (or got it out on hire) :ROFLMAO:
