A difficulty has developed in my small-town area (unincorporated population about 300) of coastal Northern California that might be just the thing for a community-minded (or -desiring) auto mechanic looking for a fresh start. The forest town basically has two businesses: the general store and the hardware-store-plus-auto-shop—both community hubs. The wonderful owner of the latter, in his mid-70s, is having trouble finding reliable mechanics and seems at his wits’ end. The current two guys seem . . . more interested in other things. My guess is that the right person or people, doing a good chunk of respected work, could eventually run things. The community is a mix of persuasions who more-or-less make it work; an even keel is key. Cost of living can be high unless you’re lucky and/or give it time; this endeavor would be more about being in this beautiful place. Let me know if you’d like more info. I’ll gauge the response and then see if he’s up for receiving emails.

I didn't realise it was *that* dangerous being a #mechanic in #USA (and that *bullets* pose *more* of a danger than industrial accidents caused by parts and materials!)

A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again

I was recently discussing Farcry 2 with some friends and how cool the fire spread system was - And how it essentially was never used again after that title.

Is there a cool feature or mechanic you’ve seen in a game and hope to see more of?

NYC roads are brutal on suspensions—potholes, plates, salt. Hearing clunks, feeling steering wander, seeing uneven tire wear, or riding bouncy? Time for a check. Ask for a road test, lift inspection, quality parts, and a 4‑wheel alignment with printouts. Pro tip: check tire pressure monthly and wash the underbody after winter. #Suspension https://autobahncollisionny.com/suspension-repair-new-york/ #NYC #AutoRepair #CarCare #Mechanic #NewYork #Potholes

So, when we had the car serviced like 6 months ago they asked if we wanted the air filters changed for an extra $150. I said no, and have bought the air filters to change them myself (they cost like $24 each). There's an engine one and a cabin one, and I've watched a bunch of YouTube clips to learn how to change them both.

But, in watching all those clips I also saw a clip where a mechanic was making a joke. In the clip he took the glove box out to change the cabin filter behind it, and when he did the filter was covered with very obviously fake plastic spiders.. he screamed and jumped out of the car.

...but now I, an arachnophobe, feel really nervous about changing the air filter!

Can some car people please let me know that there are definitely no spiders in the cabin air filter behind the glove box in my car (or warn me that there might be...)?
