Good point with the Cell phone and manuals. I've noticed most modern repair shops are scared of the jensen. When I inquired about the reluctance to work on the engine, the head " technician" told me that all the new "technicians" they hire are trained on fuel injection and computer diagnostic equipment which is designed to spit out error codes...... the "technician" then replaces modules and parts until the error codes are clear. I never thought a basic engine would cause so much trouble for the new mechanics. I guess being a real mechanic is a lost art and has long ago been replaced by the newfangled "technicians". I visited 5 other shops in my area before finding a mechanic with gray hair. The guy with gray hair was rather quite interested in the JH and saqid he would love to workon one of these cars. He said he is familiar with the engine and would welcome any job with the jensen. It would give him a break from all the other cars he works on.
A toast to all the Gray hair mechanics!!
