  • Yeah. Easy. To use. Don't know anything about these new four wheel things. Do we need to learn some new tricks. Or carry on as we are

      • Yeah. Sounds good to me. The youngsters at work all tell me I am to old. But I can still do the job alot better than them. They will never be as good as me. As long as they got a hole in there arse
        I don't take that much notice anyway

          The problem with youngsters is they don’t want to get their hands dirty , they think they know how to do it but don’t and they can talk about it all day but still can’t do it and lastly , zero respect for someone who has been in the trade for a long time .

          its like todays mechanic , plug in , rear codes , change part ....

          • Hi. Kev. I have been doing what I do for. 30 +. Years. And good at what I do. The youngster's are around 23 and think they are the dogs dangles. The govner says I should teach them tricks of the trade. I don't think so

            • Am I still a youngster?

              I can’t get my hands dirty as it ruins my fake nails and manicure.

                      Can I borrow someone’s feeler gauges? I only use mine as tooth picks these days.

                      I mean, what’s a condenser and points? Shit, maybe I am an old fart. Or maybe a young one that knows a tiny bit about old shit? Who am I kidding lol

                          Am I allowed to change them for an ignition module and trigger wheel to get rid of that old junk?

                            • No. One will touch it apart from me. If it ain't broke. Don't fix it. It works fine as it is. Even at 40 years old
