Auto repairs for the "Do-it-yourself" mechanic...  These "HOW-TO" videos, that help show viewers the details of what is involved in a specific repair... some do's and don'ts, as well as a variety of tips to make the repair easier.  Warning: Some videos may contain material that qualifies as "other than normally accepted".

One of my most popular videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge3IR3oi3aM

 I do most, if not all repairs, with tools that I carry around in my overloaded 1997 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. I perform "On-Site" braking and suspension repairs, amongst other diagnostics and services. My tools consist mostly of Craftsman, a few Stanley, Snap-On, Husky, Pittsburgh, and S&K tools. Scan tools include hand held Actrons, DVOMs, and test lights. I also currently use a Zurich ZR Pro, for advanced and bidirectional diagnostics as well as a Snap-On Verus Pro, for more detailed diagnostics.  I'm always expanding my collection, based on need and convenience.
