Hey kid. I just checked all of your recently asked questions. Quit wasting your time, and our time. Some of us actually try to help people out here. You need to find some other interest. You obviously have no talent or ability when it comes to automobiles. The answers to all 80 or so questions have to be learned with hands on training. If you don't do the work, you don't get the answers.

If you can't answer these question, you don't need to be a mechanic. I'm not a mechanic and I can answer most of the questions. But for two points your out of your mind if you think anyone will.
