Do your own maintence?

RE: Do your own maintence?
I have done everything myself, however, I usually pay to get my oil changed and just watch to make sure they do it. I live in a condo, so they don't really like you working on your car. When I was installing the Cobra brake conversion I was told that I can't do that. Too bad for them I was already about done.[8D]
For the bigger jobs, like the gears and the intake manifold, I went to a buddy's house and we did it there. The extra pair of hands came in handy as well.

Doh!!
The funny trend I see, with a lot of folks that do work on their own cars is not so much for the enjoyment, as it is cheaper.. I mean, don't get me wrong, when it comes to doing most jobs on my car, I have no reservation that I can handle the job.. There are times in the past though, where more problems came up, and it probably would've been easier (definitely not cheaper) to have someone else do it.. What's the use though?? I'm not retarded.. Or, at least not mechanically retarded..

Do you have an A/C machine to recover all the refrigerant out of the system, and recharge it when you're done?
