They were starting to take it apart for overhaul. A few quick shots I made there.

But I had a hand in putting it together just a couple of months ago.
My work isn't that bad is it?

Rich:

I can say I talked to the mechanic there for a few minutes (he was actually working pretty hard). He told me taking it apart was EASY, the really HARD part was putting it back together.

I'd say you already did the HARD part and all they are doing now is the easy work of taking it apart.

Fred,
I think there is a warranty issue involved here.
I think their trying to find the source of the minge issue.
