Default Any side mechanics on the NW side?

I recently moved over to near Champions Forest and 1960 from Pearland/Clear Lake. All my old mechanics are too far away now.

What do you need done? There are quite a few guys on the NW side that wrench on the side.

Thanks for the responses, guys.

Several months ago, the car was acting up, and it ended up being a bad speed sensor harness and wiring. Well, the car is doing the exact same thing again. I just want someone to take a peek at it and maybe hook it up to a laptop if they have the capability. I went to Autozone and there are no speed sensor trouble codes. I need my radiator changed out soon, too. I have a replacement radiator from a V6 sitting in the garage.

I'm more North East side, I don't have a computer to check the speed sensor but I can help with the radiator swap.

Okay. I need someone to change the speed sensor pigtail tomorrow. My dad and I changed the speed sensor tonight, but that didn't solve the problem. The pigtail and wires look good, but I want to change it out before I take it to a shop. It's an easy job for someone who wants it.

There's a good shop where I work. I can't tell you how many times guys spend more time and money trying to avoid going there than they would if they would just show up, pay the $85 and tell me what it's doing and leave like the dumb people who don't try to fix things they can't understand themselves. At least once a week. And then the people who we lie to and rip off for all we can when they show up with a loose screw, zero.
