[QUOTE="RocketMan, post: 2794330, member: 25546"] I trust my mechanic, once i spotted him trying hard to fix a merc 230E brake system (jammed) from 10 am in the morning and until evening when i came back he still struggling repairing it ( he insisted to repair-if other mechanics-just ask for the new parts and plug n play, settle the problem) - this is one of a kind, and knows what the customer wants, even when he produces the bill, saya pun malu mahu bayar....- no wonder his shop is still like an ordinary workshop-purely skills beb! - oldman style, repair means repair, replace only u really need it - he concerns your pocket more! I even think that if he and his mates die one day, i will cycle to work...hehehe...-rare species ones, uncle uncle type... just wanna share:- i went to this old klang road oldworkshop -wiring specialist (behind the sime tyre) yesterday and managed to chat with 1 of the oldest ex-mechanic ive ever met - he's 80. And he told a lot of technical story, no story about ECU emerged, only his experience with diesel engine and old version of petrol engine, his experiences about cranking, firing degree, specific combustion cycle for 4, 6 and 8 cylinders-ford, bmw, toyota, volvo trucks, tata (woaahhhh), flywheel, timing, setting a V8 top dead centre - worth to share (wat a day, i should bring my notebook there nexttime) - this old man had experienced modding lori balak piston as well!..hahahaaa..no joke guys...-big NO NO for modern vehicle with complex electronics p/s:- my personal experienced only. just want to share - i bet some of us already met this uncle at this wiring shop, his workers are good also.VERY REASONABLE PRICE.
