Exactly! It's like the fancy tools trick you into thinking you don't need the skill. You just push harder instead of feeling what's actually happening. That's why @johnp98 is spot on about homemade stuff proving a point. My best bearing press is literally a big bolt, some washers, and a piece of pipe. It works perfectly because I have to go slow and pay attention. The real tool is your brain, not the shiny metal.

Wait, last fall on that bridge?

My buddy's 2.7L EcoBoost had the same result, maybe a teaspoon of oil in 15,000 miles. The PCV system on these newer motors is just way better than the old ones they were designed for. Makes you wonder if the whole thing is just solving a problem that got fixed five years ago.

My brother-in-law waited 12 weeks for his custom staircase railing. Janac22, overnight would have been a miracle.

My uncle gave me a piece of fool's gold when I was seven. It was cool for a day, then it just sat on a shelf. Sometimes a rock is just a rock, and that's okay.
