Thank You.
Very good technical info, and it appears to be very
precise - could have been presented by a long term expert !
(I could say "expert/shmexpert"....but I don't presume to
know you, and would not risk offending you that way !)
The personal part though ->
Gee, that really helps this poor feller out - telling
him how badly off you think he is - I am truly impressed !
As I said, I am no expert, but I do try to avoid
condemning things I have not yet tried, especially if
they are suggested in the spirit of being helpful, and
if the person has experience, I try to honor that too.
I have been fixing my own cars, NOT 9000's, for close to
30 years - and have tapped out, and persuaded out my
share of truly nasty bleeder nipples - itty bitty ones
too - of all makes, including those on 99's and VW's -
it is not the end of civilization, it can be done with
patience and care.
Your information may be very accurate, but I (personally)
am reluctant to accept anyone's opinions when they are
presented in an overbearing and authoritative manner.
This can be taken as demeaning.
(My -former-, completely dishonest mechanic did this
constantly...it does not inspire trust.)
So, I will continue to hope that even more info will get
posted to this thread, so a perspective may be formed by
all needing education in this matter - I am sure there
are a few more folks needing to learn about this, like
myself, who will be delighted to have this info.
