Glen, I really can't argue with you there. However this being the internet just how does one determine who is qualified to do what? This morning I logged in and saw someone who I'm not familiar with, has less then 10 posts and states that he has 2 engines with bent cranks. The safe assumption was that he is relatively new to gas engines and still developing pilot skills so I sent him to the manufacturer. True, assumptions usually hold some risk however that is all I had to work with this morning. Different strokes, I have been in this hobby for 37 years now, I am completely capable of doing my own engine work as well. In fact I was once offered a position at DA by Dave Johnson. I however choose to send mine in for work other then a carb rebuild simply because with 4 teenagers at home I can't afford the time.
