I started at a job as an automechanic about 7 months ago doing basic oil changes, brake jobs, tires, and the odd catalytic converter.
I was having problems with the battery in my truck a few weeks ago; it was just not getting enough juice to start.
Price
It also explains what tools you really need,so don't need to spend $500 for mechanic set.
Shipping
I always took my car to the local quick change to get my oil change.
Packaging/appearance
I called my supervisor and she sent one of my co-workers (very capable with auto-mechanics) to come take a look.
Competitiveness
I think i have come across a few instances of the index needing to be updated to match this new edition.
