Your post reminded me of a Labor Rate Sign I once printed for a customer. It went something like this . . .

Hourly Labor Rate $60
If you watch while I work on your car $70
If you wanna help $80
If you tried to fix it, made a mess and now want me to fix it $200



Hopefully someone "willing" will chime in. Not too many mechanical technicians will do house calls, the good ones in our area are very busy guys, you might need to flatbed it somewhere.

Did you try asking for mechanical advice over in the C4 Section?

Yea i have.. and its come to just diagnosing the small trouble shooting things that i have already done... spark, timing, fuel, leak down, compression.. the only one thing ive seen is that it has a weak spark... but nothing that would make it not start.

lol and yea ive seen that motto before.. i like it lol

also .. its not like i cant throw a little money someones way to help.. i just cant pay hourly labor rates at these places around here.. $70 just to look is steep for me... and another 65 in labor to pull parts and check its out of my reach right now..

basically its a come over with a few Test tools and see what you think.

i can give dinner and a movie for that
