I'll save that for another time. While I am mechanically inclined, I'm just not inclined to take on this task at this time. My work is 160 miles round trip and I'm in the middle of a project that's just a little too high exposure to risk missing extra days off if I mess something up. If it was warmer weather where I could rely on my motorcycle while the car was down, I would consider it. |
