Excavators

Must sell this excavator. I was happy the “equipment repair guy”, and i use that phrase very loosely came and got my machine and brought it back to his shop. After awhile he called and “claimed” my machine needed a bunch of work and would cost 4-5k to repair. He further claimed he had a great “job ready” machine with a brand new rebuilt engine and new tracks, and why don’t i just trade my machine and 6k for this awesome great running unit, as he claimed it should last me a decade or more considering we don’t use it that much. So after some haggling i agreed to trade my machine and my hard earned cash for his “job ready” awesome great running no issue, use it a decade machine. I look over the machine and notice it needs a new bucket, and my machine had a new bucket i just gave to him, he says no worries i will bring you your bucket next week and swap them, i then notice this unit has no fuel cap, again no worries i’ll bring you the cap from your great running machine next week he says, we also negotiated a hydraulic thumb as i required one for the work i do, you guessed right he is bringing me one next week, no worries. Now the big lie is about to be told ! I notice the machine is smoking a white smoke and it certainly is a concern, he says it just got out of the shop and you need to run her hard for about 20 hours and get those valves seated and her broken in. So not being too gullible i go google” break-in for diesels smoking” and do find a few post mentioning some smoke during break-in period. Oh i almost forgot this part, my friend a few mile down the road has many, many pieces of equipment and mechanics working on his stuff daily, this guy tells me ” i do all the work for ” your buddy down the road, so i figure he must be a good mechanic, and if he’s just down the road i know where to find him. Well well what a big liar , he never comes back to fix my excavator or bring the parts, many broken promises, then a lot of choice words and nae calling because of my impatience with a machine that stopped running within an hour of us using it, so it sits right smacj in the middle of our basement excavation… Runs but no power after warm up. So i go see my friend down the road who knows everybody, and nobody screws him over, and i ask about mr. Honest equipment repair person from sylva n.
