I did this one day I brought my 1966 G.M.C in for a oil change and a compelete tune up. I thought since I had no time to do it myself that just maybe I should let some body eles do the work.To my amazement I found out that no body in an auto shop knew how to do the work. I looked at them and tried to figure out what part of a mechanic where they. todays Mechanics really just reads computer codes from the brain that control the engine systems. They are not old school ( like a person like me) When the engine pings what does it tells you? When the engine stalls in acceleration what does it tell you? Or when the engine sends out black smoke out of the tail pipe. Just think these guys have to run a computer codes but what if the car does not have a computer brain. What if they would have to trouble shoot it by ear? Could they? Old cars need old school people like me. I like those old cars with those old engines. Chevy 283,327,350,400 and then big block 454,450 and 455 in buick plus Cad. Ford 289,302,302Boss,351 Winsor,351 cleveland and Big Block 351 MIdland,352 Midland and 460 engine found in LTD.Ford owns Cummings diesels and dodge trucks has them in there trucks interesting. International diesels are in Ford trucks. Understand your hobby is to live it. Not make fun of it. To collect in the hobby is to understand the makers of that equipment and to research the way it was made. Ask your self this questions. 1 Why it is made that way? 2. what purpose did it serve for you the person who needed it to do that job? 3. As a car collector and a Tractor collector. What do you enjoy. Look at Case they did tractrs and cars. Look at International Harvester they did trucks, cars, tractors and much more. All I ask is do your research witch you will see it pays off. Some thing to think about okay..thanks.
