Bad Mechanics
If you have an integra, an Autozone “OEM” oxygen sensor will not fit in your car. You will have to return that oxygen sensor, and drive all the way to the dealer and pay $220 for a real OEM one. As you don’t have a lift, you will have to pay a mechanic to install it. Most places that you call will tell you that it will take more than an hour to install and try to charge you $80 or more to install it.

If it takes a person over an hour to unplug, unscrew, plug new, and screw back in, they really don’t deserve to earn an $80 per hour labor charge. Maybe they find the whole concept of lefty-loosey, righty-tighty to be a half hour struggle. I don’t know.

The more I try to do things myself on my car, the more I realize that most mechanics will completely bullshit people. Most repairs are not as complex as a mechanic would have you think.

Now when you find one who can install your O2 sensor in ten minutes with minimal cost, stick with him even if he’s a little drive away and answers questions with a less than reassuring, “Sure, I’ll give it a shot.”

Happy Birthday to my beard, which is now 3 months old. It almost lost it’s life this weekend…Until I put on a bandanna. The scary biker look appealed to me enough to breathe new like into my beard. Said bandannas can be found in Wal-Mart next to the Dale Earnhardt baseball hats, wrestling t-shirts, and blade sunglasses.

Wal-mart brings everything that’s wrong with middle American fashion right to my home town for me to enjoy.
