I'm going to step in and vouch for Al (2Tightwads), he's a very respectable and honest man who only wants to help those who are willing to learn. He went out of his way last night to come meet me on campus to my stranded car and helped me get it going. I've saved his number and plan on calling him again in the future to tune my car, and any other mechanical things that come up. I'd recommend him to anyone.

Are you saying you call those numbers in the jon?

+1 for the "Al's a good guy". He's helped out numerous local car guys often on his own time.
