I l4arned more about cars from my dad that never finished high school than most mechanics before fancy computers took over. Now you need a special computer to tell you what computer part of the car is bad so you can replace it.

[@deathstrike]

That is true, but sadly without those computers we would still have 8 to 10mpg and with 4 dollar plus a gallon being the norm, it would erase your wallet faster than your partner at Black Friday or Cyber Monday. The days when classic mechanics (myself included) could rebuild a 4bbl carb and change plugs and points and condensers are long gone. Now it's OBD II and at least you can purchase a Bluetooth module that will tell you error codes on the fly on your phone. That's a huge plus when you need quick and accurate info and don't have a Chilton's copy available. Is it a good thing? Yes and no. Because some error codes are actually engineering errors at the factory. Ford was bad for that in Explorers and Expeditions. Same stupid shit like emissions, cat converter, and sensors. Nuisance faults.....I could go on, but I do miss the days of simplicity. Plugs you could change, carbs you could rebuild, and a tune up with a timing light. Ahhh memories...
