He even used to keep a piece of paper with a drop of the old oil and before picking up he would show you the new one... could fix any engine, never a complaint and more clients he could handle... For as much I search, cant find one like that, they don’t care anymore, there’s little work one can do on their own today so you are stuck with them... | |
