Thank you. :) I'm lucky at this moment that I had the time and energy to get most of it done. :)
Had to correct my first comment. It was I could not get it done as much as you did.
Without the right tools and equipment. It’s hard work. Even with the right tools and equipment, it’s a skill.
My dad was a mechanic. Why I use to be able to do it because he loved doing it and that means us doing it. lol.
My uncle was one, but he retired before I was old enough to learn much from him. Lol, it's good he had you helping him though!
That where I learned the right tools and equipment make a huge difference. It’s funny basic mechanics was must have skill when I was a kid. Brakes, spark plugs, etc.
Now they last so long, it’s not as important to know. My kid asked me about something on an old key chain. I said it was a spark plug gap tool. Last time I used that was 20 years ago
