Default Stupid Chevy people

So, I was tired of trying to fix my freaking idle, so I brought it to one of my customers to take a look at it (I work for a parts store). He was having a problem as well. He ended up taking the plenum back off again ( I had it off 3 times already looking for leaks), ran a smoker for the entire system (no results), finally wanted to order parts to be replaced (NO CODES!!!) like MAP, IAC, TPS, O2s. I refused to send him parts being that I had changed all these already to no avail. I asked him to check the TPS voltage. He simply says "you can't adjust them, try putting a chevy motor in, that will fix it" Ignorant pain in the a$$!! They had the car for a week trying to fix it. Finally I took it back from him, pierced my two little wires, got out my drill, and holy crap would you look at that, idle is perfect! Just wanted to rant a bit. Stupid people think they know everything sometimes.
