Breathe deeply, Grasshopper, and feel the vibes of the Vanagods...

No, really, the timing is right for this job now. After 2-3 $1000 fixes
in the last couple of years, I simply decided to learn about my car for
myself. I have no time limits, only the desire to get it right. I had
never pulled an engine before, and now the whole 'threat' feeling is
gone. With the right tools, knowledge, and friends, one can accomplish anything!

Besides...I need this training for my transmission rebuild!
Stay tuned!
Tony
