I gave up working on my own cars many years ago after I rebuilt a VW
carburetor and had two screws left over.
Seemed to work ok, though.
Ah, yes, I remember carburetors well... remove screws and remove
cover... watch little pistons and springs go dancing across the
floor... try to figure out which piece goes in what hole ;-)
Watched a repairman fix my hp1120C printer the other day... he had a
neat MAGNETIC BOWL that he dropped the screws into. Gotta find one of
those.

Looks like the very one. I should have stuck my nose over his
shoulder and read the label, but he had that classic sign...
Repairs $50/hour
If you watch $75/hour
If you help $100/hour ;-)

Not from birth. I was interested in chemistry until I was 8.
