    Oh, in that case I'm right there with you. Anytime I am spending lots of time under my truck, I put a tire or two.

    I'll be completely honest, being underneath a vehicle is one of my least favorite things to do, I probably over do it with the tires, but better safe than sorry IMO.

    That is a given bigger shops take longer to fill ! I thought 80' x80' was plenty big NOPE!!!

    Then you still work outside on those quick 20 minute jobs that end up lasting several weeks.

    The best lesson I have learned if your going to park in front of the over head door at least one running vehicle needs to be outside.

    :amen: You are dead for a long time -- 5 extra minutes to increase the odds of not finding out how long are a good 5 minutes spent.
    I also work alone, makes one very cautious.

    Little bit of this and that
    Having had to replace the contacts on 2 different 4.7 starters yes they suck. Almost as much as replacing the plugs on a '05 Hemi Durango.

    Seems the old Chrysler 2.2/2.5 had a mount on the front that had to be fiddled with to change the belts, or maybe just the timing belt -- it was a lot of years ago.
