The Engine Doctor

We've got that in about September. I saw it at a trade show or saw videos of a trade show and I liked the concept and I got in touch with the sales guy and he came round and gave me a video demonstration of it and that was great and I thought, yeah, T In the country areas here we don't get a lot of brand new tech as quickly as in the city. So we have to wait till there's a trade show or something The first time I'd seen one was at the Bursons trade show and it was, I caught my attention, my imagination and I thought, We have been able to do our regio checks a lot quicker than were previously able to. We don't have to take them out on the road to do the brake test anymore w So to be able to do that in the shop is a massive bonus. The other bonus as we get is they tend to, it tends to find problems that the other mac So realistically it's a win-win in all directions. I charged $11 for a regio check and $20 on a service. In the last two years I've had one person say they don't want that test and I've just said them we'll take it somewhere else. I never get to them without explaining all the parameters and what they're looking at on the sheet and they then take that in a positive direction and with the attitude that hey we've just paid for a safety check, we've got a complete safety check. The beauty of t It sees what it sees and reports what it sees. That's it. So effectively if we get a car come in and it's got a brake fault or a steering fault or anything We can prove it beforehand and we can do it again afterwards to prove that it's now rectified and they go oh, well, happy. The most interesting ones we've found is the proportioning valve on Corraldas and Pulsars and stuff They run a system where each wheel has its own brake line coming out of the proportioning valve and it only takes the valve to seize up in one little area and one brake's not working and we've also gone further to that and we've told customers we've had that problem with. The reason t It stops working.
