You can't edit your screw ups when you are caught. That takes the humour right out I say.
Yeah, I'm mechanically inclined, just no longer mechanically motivated. I've installed car stereos, alarms, waterpumps, radiators, head gaskets, and valve stem sleeves. But nothing to do with transmissions or the engine block.
TPBM is much more mechanically inclined than I am.
That's a negative. I did car brakes once, also changed fuel filters a couple times. That's about it other than routine stuff. On the preflights I check to make sure the engine is still there...
Im not sure if I could do a whole engine (dont see why not though) but if worked on numorious engines and changed just about everything on a car there is to change at some point.
