Summary
Having been around cars most of my life and ownership of several, I have a very good understanding of the inner-workings of vehicles and what makes them tick. I can anticipate what might go awry, diagnose likely issues, and confidently wield a wrench to mend them. If a part needs replacing, I’ll happily dive into self-taught mechanics.
I've had my past two vehicles almost completely apart at one point or another. I've replaced 3 engines across different cars, done brake and coolant systems, overhauled a fuel system, had my transmission apart, replaced and adjusted suspension.
While I may lack the formal certification, but put me under a hood, and I’ll demonstrate my bona fide qualifications.
