Please tell us that you are joking about this part. I sure wouldn't want anybody to believe this.....should I?
When I was a young guy, I had a transmission problem. (I don't remember exactly what it was, but I think is was low fluid) I took it to an AAMCO shop and the guy pulled out the transmission fluid dip stick and smelled it. He said, "you need a complete transmission re-build." Holy ****, I didn't have that kind of money.
A friend of mine on the local police department had a friend who was a "back alley" mechanic. We took it to him. He went under the car on a "creeper" and came out with a gasket between his fingers. He said, "The back-up light switch gasket is leaking." The repair cost me 25 cents and took 3 minutes.
To this day, 45 years later and 1,500 miles away, I will never, ever go to an AAMCO shop.
All this was in Monaca, Pennsylvnania, when I was a young disc jokey at WBVP in Beaver Falls, Pa. Anybody remember that?
