Ain't that the truth!! Between that and getting the six pack on my '70 AMX set properly it was frustrating as all get-out to get those set right for me.

Re-build an engine? Fine. Set points & adjust a carb right was a real PITA for me. It wasn't until an old friend (now deceased) taught me to do it by ear that I couldn't do it at all.

No doubt. Special wrenches, dwell meter and feeler gauges were just hilarious to work with. /sarc

Ha...true enough. Vapor lock. Why does it smell like gasoline in here??

Carry a fuel can and a funnel just in case. And the extinguisher.
