Phil Cain is quite right. Read the book, take your time and enjoy the experience. When you undertake a task such as this, something the average guy in Amaerica IS NOT going to do, it give one a sense of satisfaction, a sense of self sufficiency that our forefathers had, and has been lost by many today. And it makes one feel more secure about their machines because there is no room for any doubt in your mind whatsover as to whether the mechanic did a good job or poor job, whether you are going to get home driving or have to walk home because of poor quality work YOU are the MECHANIC!! And you know what you did and how well. And THAT is worth a lot!!
