He stated the switch and 2nd valve was on the intake? I have no idea...
Those prices do seem a bit high. That's why it's best to learn how to DIY. You probably could have saved over $1000. Where in Ct. did you go for this work? Where abouts are you from? I'm wondering what "switch" that is.

Well ladies and gents. As it works out the mechanic now is not sure if it took 8 hours to replace a pump. He also admitted that the bill is wrong as he did not put in a hose and 2nd valve. He also mentioned that was and now is not a core credit.

My question is he is stating that the reservoir has a switch in it? This was the 130 charge?

I gave this guy enough time to make this right and now just going to let the lawyer and DMV deal with this.

Good idea. I don't think ya need a lawyer though, the Ct. DMV helps out alot. I filed a report on Stephen's Pontiac in Bristol and the DMV investigator solved ALL my issues, plus some I didn't complain about, within 2 weeks. Hope it works out for ya. Dishonest mechanics make me sick.
