Still learning. Getting the service manual helps a lot when you're starting out...if you didn't get to learn from dad or gramps.

What I have to keep reminding my self is it's really just a bunch of parts that go together and to not be afraid to try because I'm afraid I'll just make it worse. Man do I sound like a wuss, but an honest wuss I guess.
