Things change as to what a guy can "do nowadays", vs decades ago....
When a car tuneup was just points, plugs, rotor and condenser and a timing light, almost anybody could learn how to do that...
Nowadays, people don't have the ability to fully maintain their own car because of all the sophisticate diagnostic equipment needed $$$$$$$ in order to work with the computers/controllers.
That's why the work I do nowadays is hunting fishing crabbing prawning golfing boating
The other stuff I'll just buy or pay for the service.
