I only do the PM and small jobs now. Don’t have the time to do any big jobs anymore. I stopped doing any real big jos on my own cars years ago. Mainly because they were so reliable…there weren’t any. I’ve done some big jobs for son’s friends cars.

I’ll take on the occasional job, starter, thermostat etc. that I know will reward my wallet with my labor, adding fuel filter to the list. Probably glad I did not have them do the air filter, I can see a .5 hour charge for that! Something to do this weekend, YAY, besides golf on Sat, 60 Degrees the great plains, great, gotta fix a database at work I broke, replace the screen door knob that the return spring to keep the knob centered and allowing the latch mechanism to work, and I think I put a new one in in June, will see if there is any satisfaction from menards,

Live and learn, will not take on front struts needed, looks like a royal pain for 03 trailblazer.
