Default Nose Strut O-Ring Was Bad...

So I've seen a lot and retained some. But I've not been
interested in picking up tools.


I like getting dirty, and playing with tools. In my regular life, I
don't get much of a chance (well, other than remodeling the hotel --
but that's a different kind of tools!) to play with cars or
motorcycles anymore, so when I get a chance to do an owner-assisted
annual, I jump at it.

I've learned a LOT along the way. After doing it nine years in a row,
I pretty much know the inspection by heart. It sure makes things
easier.

I LOVE owner assisted annuals. I just finished one on an Ercoupe. The owner
was crying about how hard it was to get the floor boards out, and how much
his back hurt him.

I simply reminded him that it was "an OWNER assisted annual" and continued
on with my compression check.

And if I was him or the one paying you I would have told you to take a long
walk with that answer!!!!
