Many of the older mechanics that are heading into retirement don't have enough young people moving into the trades We are heading into a shortage of knowledgeable young people in ALL the trades. Plumbers,Electricians,Carpenters, Sheetmetal, Roofers, Cabinet makers, Stone masons,Bricklayers and many more.. We have and abundance of people with Diplomas for jobs that are being phased out technologically. We are in dire need of trade schools.

Well, if he had flooded the engine or otherwise foiled the plug then putting a flame to dry it out, burn off any gas that was on it and warm it up before re- installing it, would maybe be the way to get it to start next time. Putting in the muffler is just a way to hold it so you don’t burn your fingers. Tapping the lighter is just a way of getting more stupid questions. That said, the plug in the video didn’t look wet or fouled, so who knows what he’s trying to tell people.

an easier way is to just twist the knuckle gasket under the main stem sensor. its better to pop the trunk before adding type of propellant to the evap control module.Done.

We had a new guy at work and he was asking if he could help us. The guy I was working with asked him to go to the parts department and ask for a fillopion tube. He came back later telling us that they were all sent back to be revirginized.

now they're telling us we got to check our spark plugs to make sure that they're not leaking cuz that will mess with your compression oh you have a compression leak on number five cylinder your spark plugs leaking through the porcelain really and how long is these companies been making spark plugs like champion they ain't got nothing to do with leaky spark plugs they're spark plugs never leaked that's why they've been in business for 120 years
