Well when I got the sparky to fix my fusible link in the car and fix the short. What he did was fix the fusible link.
So I was goign to work today and the radio stops and I smell something so I pul ove rto the side of the road adn turn the engine off and whtie smoke starts to pour out from under the bonnet. I then pop it and it gets worse I try to look in and see what is burning, but can't see anything through all the smoke. Aroudn 20 seocnds later I can see trhough and it appears taht the wire that had the short in it wasn't fixed or replaced and is pretty much fu(ked. It is all crispy and is brittle to touch and breaks away like dried up spaghetti when I touch it.
So I try to find a sparky in the area. They are all booked up for 4 days or so. S's I get my dad to tow me back to the palce that "Fixed" it in the first place and he says that it won't be done today...
OK I think.
HE syas probably also wont be done tomorrow...
SHould be done monday.
Grumble grumble...
Anyway so he says that it was prbably this wire and I am like sh|t hey? The crispy burnt one?
But in my head because I am too nice.

The thing is he doesn't think that I asked him to fix the short as well. But I did just that he was busy talking to some cops that came up and wanted their daughters car fixed. So he wasn't really paying attention to me.
But even if he didn't ehar me say that. Wouldn't it be a pretty obvious thing to not just replace the fusible link and think that is it?
I would think that it has blown for some reason?
Like if you went to a tyre place witha blown tyre because there was a piece of metal from the guard hanging out and it punctured it. The tyre place wouldn't just put another tyre on and say see ya... They would fix the bit hitting the tyre. or tell you about or something. Not just hope everything was alright...
grumble grumble grumble....
