Like you, I try and do ALL my own work, car related OR otherwise. Being in just about ALL facets of the Industrial supply business over the better part of 40sih years, I have formed great relationships with many of my customers - HVAC, Plumbing, Electricians, Machinist, Mechanical Contractors etc etc SO IF I need ANY advice, guidance OR even the use of a "specialized" tool, my contacts have always been eager to help....and when I cannot do it for "permitting" sake, they are always there to help as well. AS for the car side. I have started doing a lot more of my "modern" car work, fixing to invest in a "TRUE" bi-directional multi graphing scanner and move beyond the "generic" code reader status SO I can learn more about the modern computer control vehicles and better refine the diagnosis of a problem over the general overview of a code reader...... MORE because I'm not gonna let these pencil necked geek techies beat me!!!! I am fortunate in this area to have a good friend, who just closed his shop of 45 years, that is willing to "teach" me some of what he has learned of these modern systems and the electrical side of sensors.
