Subject: RE: BS: In Search of an Honest Mechanic
THE best way to find a good mechanic is to ask your friends who they go to. I once walked into the service bay of a garage and saw the "mechanic" grinding down the NEW brake shoes because he didnt know enough to turn the star wheel and put the automatic adjusters into their original position! Instead of dirty worn out old shoes, he would have had clean new worn out shoes! I pointed it out to him, then informed his boss. It amazes me that you must have a license to install a toilet, or, a light fixture, but, you can frig with a lethal weapon even if you have the iq of a soil sample!
