FuzzyGeff does not wrench.
There's no shame in that. I don't program computers, he does.
But he just mentioned having to have the motor mounts changed on his car.
This is a time when I wish he was local, because that's not a hard job at all.
We'd have it knocked out in time to get dinner.
The thing that really hurts is that it's less than $100 in parts.
Same same for the exhaust he mentioned.
$300 in parts if we order from Rock Auto.
But he's not local. And it hurts me that I cannot help.
For the record: I charge my choice of beverage while I'm working, tools that I don't already own and dinner once I'm done. FOR FRIENDS ONLY!
If you, generously, offer more than that I will accept.
Some brands, however, will require more. Mitsubishi and Korean stuff will need financial contributions because they just do things strange.
If your associate in crime Mr. FG is anywhere near SW Michigan let me know, done motor mounts on Benz and GM before, not hard but just a pain in the ass for Kraut stuff. 4 linked extension bars to be able to reach one bolt from above and prayers the raised engine does not shift laterally while jacked otherwise becomes a chore to get the bolt back into the new mount. Ask me how I know ;-)
ReplyDeleteI never did learn how to wrench, but even if I did, I have nowhere to do it, particularly at this time of the year.
