Juli;
        I would normaly be the LAST person to defend a  mechanic but
there's hundreds of things to check on any vehicle. How much did you pay
him i.e. how long did it take him? What I am trying to say is there's
only one person you can really trust. Get a repair manual. Read it. Get
your hands dirty. It's never too late to start.

Drive Safely & Good Luck
