Another thing i could also say i wouldn't care what car i was working on, if it came in with an issue or 10 and it left with none, Did my job. There is honor in that.

Thanks everyone for their inputs many people have gone through different avenues or paths, All i know is i'd sweep floors, change oil and clean parts every day if i eventually learnt about the dynamics of motors. Working on my car and stuff was never a hobby, i just had to change a water...
