________________________________________________
Yesterday the friking ignition key wouldn`t turn off (94 ragtop)
had to pull a fuse to kill the engine then dropped the NEG bat cable.
I don`t know if it`s the lock cylinder or the ignition switch that`s hanging
so I dropped it off at Robert Tau Automotive (saw him listed in Vette
Magazine
as recommended), and I`m sick of Leo (at) Leo`s Corvette Center totally
ripping me off.
You can tell Leo when dropping off your car "Now Leo, I know what this
job pays so don`t
rip me off", and he will anyway and sweet talk you.... LOLOL He`s just
one of those guys,
you get mad at but can`t stay mad at. :-)
Well...... Tau had dirt parking lot, ragged building and a lot of other
makes sitting around
(have fingers crossed).
I got out the service manuals and then decided I didn`t want to risk a
broken jaw from setting off
the dang airbag. LOLOL Gotta give the guy a chance I guess. I feel like
a abused wife that keeps
coming back with dang Leo. So I`ll see how Robert does..... LOLOLOLOL

I`m in the Pensacola FL area, anyone know if a reputable
Vette shop in the area, that will pamper our babies???
I was wiping the dirt off the sidewalls waiting on him to fill
out the repair order. LOLOL
A ragged shop (Tau) isn`t always a sign of less than work quality, though..
Leo has a new big ass shop with like 15 bays, clean as a pin
and he also has to pay for it.... LOLOLOLOL

95 % chance its your lock cylinder.
the ignition switch is located down by the firewall and
could not hang up the show.
there could be a problem beyond the lock cylinder but within
the column?

if what you are saying is true ?
(watch out for a slander charge)
don`t understand why you would ever forgive him.

your discribed problem will not set off the air-bag. believe
it or not those are not easyto set off.
