This was a bit of a weird one. I showed up to a 1966 Beetle that was running poorly. I found a spark plug wire disconnected, but once that was hooked up and timing set it was still running a bit funny. Then I noticed this hole in the carburetor. Apparently it's not uncommon for a strong backfire to dislodge the plug that belongs there and then there's a big vacuum leak. We explored a few options. Apparently it's the perfect size for a dime, and a lot of the guys in the forums were suggesting a dime and some JB weld to close it up more permanently. I opted for a piece of rubber hose and a bolt. Sealed it right up, and drives great again.

Thought I was in for a very bad day when one of these spark plugs broke in a cylinder head. Luckily I got it to back out with an extractor.

I recently did a job with a stuck CV axle end. Another mechanic had been working on it and got stuck. Kudos to that guy for the homemade slide hammer. Ingenious! If you happen to see this post it eventually worked after lots of finagling.

My client today wanted his scooter to run immediately, and he didn't want to wait for parts. We made it work.

In the 90s the Chevy pickup had a throttle body fuel injection setup. This client didn't want to repair that system and opted instead for an Edelbrock intake, demon carburetor, and hei vacuum advance distributor. He's very happy with how it runs now.

This little pickup had a couple of codes stored. They pointed toward an electrical failure. When I opened the rear door I found these broken wires. Reconnecting them solved the problem.

This ford 5.4 had been leaking coolant from the intake manifold. The plastic manifold was old and cracked. A new manifold and gaskets fixed the problem.
