Is does my nut in that I am too afraid to tackle the most menial of tasks. It made me wonder how much most of the SIDC community know about their cars and their associated components ? From the Squirrel to those who never even look under the bonnet, from Cambeltown to Peterheid !
My knowledge has increased greatly ( w.r.t modding) but I wish I knew how gearboxes, diff's, brakes, steering racks etc work and the like....
Has anyone every been on night classes ? I would love to tackle the basic jobs but it's all down the confidence. I have huge respect for the likes of Wuz & Higgy who will tackle any job in their own garage. The risk of making an erse of these type of jobs is simply too high for me.....even changin' brakes pads - not exactly a job you want to c0ck up given the safety perspective !
