Before
You Tackle Any job
It's wonderful to do things yourself. It costs you less, it
gives you a sense power to know that you did it on your own,
and you know that the job's done right. Nevertheless, to avoid
getting in over my head, I always ask myself the following
questions before undertaking any job:
? Do I really want to do this? Will it be fun - or horrendous?
(I try nev to do anything that doesn't feel good anymore (unless
it's absolutely necessary).
? Do I know how to do it? If not, where do I go to learn?
? Does it require such expensive tools that it would cost
less to have someone do it for me than to buy those tools?
Can I borrow the tools need?
? If I goof, can something be seriously damaged? Can I?
? How long will it take, and what is my time worth? How much
money wi, I save by doing it myself?
You'll be happy to know that almost every job in this book
should pass the tests. If you find one that doesn't, don't
hesitate to turn it over to a profes¬sional - after you
read enough to know that the job is definitely necessary what
it entails, whether the work has been done properly, and how
to get s isfaction if it isn't. With that in mind, let's get
on to the very first thing you need to know in order to work
on your vehicle.
