Just a quick update on my earlier post which, when I wrote it, had my engine in the late stages of coming back together in the hands of Neil Andrews at AEP.
The engine is now in, has done the first four hours, and is running beautifully. So, in short, the engine has turned up on time, on budget and works straight out of the box. Respect!
As with all service industries, the 'consumer' can be quick to complain and slow to praise and I'd just like to break that mould.
(And just to say I have no connection to Neil's business whatsoever!)
