bossman, The pics were great, I tried to explain the differences a few posts back but maybe it did not make sense without the pics.

Dont worry HRM, I think he was refering to me. I may not be a mechanic by trade, but hoe many of us on here are? I do all the work on my own car except machine work. I worked as a mechanic at the biggest dealership in the state for about 2 years till I got tired of the service writers feeding the tech that kissed thier *** and not giving any work to the ones that didnt. I think everyone here knows you are a master tech anyways.

Nobody is upset. I just dont appreciate being called "an internet mechanic" by someone who has no clue to anything about me. And if he wasnt talking to me, then I apologize for the misunderstanding.
















^^^^^Thats me after taking my little "chill pill"

For real. I was about ready to strangle the guy I used to have to work with because he was a total a$$hole. I came home in bad moods and wanted to argue all the time with my wife and kids. Now Im all good. And I sleep tons better at night too.
