Hey Michael... Are you a VCCA member? Your profile doesn't show a membership #...

I just want to take a second and point out that often people talk about the membership fees to our club being too expensive at $40 US a year. Here's one of those examples where work and lessons on a simple (for a licensed mechanic) repair are often shared at VCCA meetings. I've had plenty of parking lot lessons and shop time with members that are certified mechanics for free, just because as club members that's what we do for each other. The local regions often plan "shop nights" where guys get together and work on the cars.

This isn't meant to sound like a lecture just for you, but just some advice for many of the others reading this thread as well, as it's evident you're already receiving a lot of help from these guys.
