      You have to ask the counter guy. They’re next to the muffler bearings and blinker fluid.

          I used to work in auto parts at car dealers. My favorite thing was when a parts driver got to try their hand at working the shop side counter, and the mechanics would haze the shit out of them.

            This is mostly unrelated to what your saying but the rx-7 valve cover gasket made me laugh. It also reminded me, at my first job I got a ride home one time with one of women I worked with and she had a Dodge Stealth, which was pretty bitchin’ at the time, so I’m gushing about how this Stealth is way cooler than anything any of our coworkers drivers and she starts telling a story about her first car an FB RX-7 from like 82 I think. I should have married that girl…

            I’m sure that punchline is funny to those who know cars. But I know about as much about car mechanics as I about linux.

            That is to say I probably would have fallen for the blinker fluid trick, if I hadn’t seen it on youtube.
