      I will take a Carburetor over fuel injection any day
      You have to know the mechanics fuel injection
      Waste more fuel than a carburetor back in the 60s
      If a car whould not start you could get it going
      With out a tow truck today forget about cam sensor
      Crank sensor fuel pump in the gas tank(one of the stupidest things) ever
      Done and you need a tow turck hell replace a water pump
      On 383 in a 1/2 hour or less GM 283 Chrysler 383 ford 289

        are JUNK hard to work on cant get quality
        parts and with flat rate you just can not make
        any money the only way this is ever going

        works flat rate only the rip off clowns

            one question WHY WASTE YOUR TIME and money ASE Cert spells rip off What I can tell you is if you have done a lot of steering and alignments NOTHING on this test will make any sense and most of the answers they want are 100 % WORNG
            And don’t tell me I don’t understand I took all the test I had ASE master cert and only passed by giving answers they wanted not the right ones What you have to under stand is ASE is nothing more then a money making scam for the people that run ASE IT wont make you more money it wont make you a better tech ASE is a piece of paper for some one that does not know any thing about auto repair and makes them feel good ASE will NOT make you a better tech
            I just wish all of you would stop drinking the cool aid and forget this ASE crap

                            hate to bust your bubble but today ASE is not worth a thing I drank the cool aid years ago and had a ASE master tech
                            Today ASE is nothing more than a money making for ASE it self I had techs come to my shop that had ASE certs and could NOT find their way out of a paper bag. Experience is the best teacher hands down and NO ASE test will ever help you
                            Today any employer that wants a ASE cert is nothing more than a rip off shop Now there I have said it and upset a few here but any one that has been in the business 40 years like me knows what I am talking about I tell every one I know STAY AWAY FORM A SHOP THAT HAS A ASE sign out front all it spells is RIP OFF

                                I under stand the computers stuff JUST HATE THEM WITH A Passion Been turning wenches since 1963 seen a lot of crap in my days BUT todays cars got to be the worst they ever built Todays cars are NOT as reliable Back in the day if a car did not start you just played with the points and that was it today if they dont start you need a tow truck anything with a timing belt is NOT any good i stay away from them give me the old timing chain any day and as far as fuel injection goes a carburetor works hands down better My 04 grand cherokee with a 4.0 inline six with fuel injection gets 10 mpg in the city (HELL my old 440 sixpack got that) Now take an older 4.0 with a carburetor and they get 18/22 in the city all day long
                                I am so glad I am retired now I go out of my way to tell anyone thinking about going into the field to run away from it
                                I was one of the fools that drank the cool aid and went with the ASE cert I had an ASE master tech and I can honestly say it was the big joke AS good part of the answers on that test is all WORNG I passed that dumb test by giving them the answers they wanted BUT out on the street that test did not hold water.
