Maybe once we get the engine rebuild done and add that write up here. Right now, everything that has been going on could be a what to watch out for thread.

I pulled a part of an older post from @zim

"I am getting much more comfortable! It's no longer intimidating when you know what mostly everything is and what it does, and which other systems it's connected to."

Here's out that knowledge can really help you out. When you go to a mechanic to pay for something you can't fix yourself, if you talk the talk and do it correctly, they know they can't fuck you over. Then you'll get a quote for the time and materials that they really think it'll take. You might be surprised at the instant bond that develops when the mechanic can talk to you like a colleague and not have to explain it as if you were an ordinary dumbass.

This is very true. The guys I use know I used to be a mechanic so they tend to play it pretty straight with me.
