Thanks DM: We are probably not as smart as you give us credit for. We probably know more than the person in the street...BUT when we go to our friendly repair facility ..Auto or Marine......We usually CAVE. It's the easy way .

As long as you are not willing to pick up the tools and do it yourself..We are at the mercy of the SHOP...they know this: We don't feel like, or don't have the tools, time, knowledge, or incentive to do the job ourselves. SO: We say OK...Do it.....and we justify it by telling ourselves......at least it will be done ...

When it comes to repairin something....THIS is Absolute:.."It's in the Knowin...not the Doin." Almost anyone can do the work...but you have to know HOW. NB
