actually gene, I taught him much of what he knew about mechanics while we were
still in junior and senior high school (I worked as a professinal mechanic
starting the summer I was twelve years old, my father owned the place).

The year after high school he earned his license. When he was drafted, the
military thought so much of his license they made him a rifleman.

After he got out of the service he used his license to earn a living for a
period of time, but quit the aircraft business to earn a much better living
pounding nails as a carpenter.

I'm a certificated aircraft mechanic and factory trained

a high school buddy of mine had one of those licenses before his 19th
birthday.
How many years did it take you to get yours?


It certainly didn't take me nineteen years.

I'm not sure what went wrong in your life, Jax... from what you say,
your friend finally became mechanically proficient and knowledgeable
and, well, I guess you took "the other road." Sorry about that,
Jax....

Perhaps you could call your friend and he could set you straight. He
could draw pictures and be more detailed than I have been....

It seems oil was not covered in the class you took.

Probably not the same oil that you remember from your school daze....
was that vegetable oil from Home Ec? or do you only remember sex ed?
Oh, the Speedos..... that must be it! Ok, Jax, we do *not* lube
engines with Motion Lotion........

Please see your high school buddy for clarification and a
refresher....
