I've got to get this off my chest! About two months ago, I had a mechanic "replace" my flexplate and resurface my flyplate. Yesterday, my old mechanic pulled out the tranny and I took it to be rebuilt, there goes $300. My question is, can I get anything back from the first Mechanic?

But, on a bright note, J.C., my original mechanic, just bought, fixed up and gave a 78 wagoneer to his son. His comment yesterday, "You always come back to a country mechanic...." He also said that he tried to trade his Dodge 4X4 to his son for the Wagoneer, but no go...Now he's hooked!

Ok, I'll bite - what is a flyplate??

You have a flywheel with a manual trans and a flexplate with an auto so you don't have both...

If the flexplate is ok then I don't see why the mech would give any refund unless theres more to the story.
