Now stupid is a horse of a different color.. Stupid can't, or won't, learn... They do things just because they can, not because they should. You'll have to tell that to your former mechanic yourself.. I never make any attempts to teach the stupid..
You are a wise man to have made him your "former mechanic"...

Words of wisdom. Agree, personally I like being corrected and tuned. I'm world champion for questions, and too many times I think something is fact when it's not at all. It's an education when you're open to it, and hopefully learn to hold things at bay till proven.
He was actually a good mechanic for the most part. I think meth did him in. He took over the old man's shop, and that old man was excellent. I used them because I knew nothing about these and mechanical beyond simple, and shied away from it.
