[QUOTE="Rarefish383, post: 4748904, member: 86785"] My buddy, retired Nov 2019 with 30 years, is a world class dumpster diver, scrounger, and all around cheap skate. He was complaining about doing a tune up on his Hemi Ram. He said he could get the OEM plugs for a couple bucks each, the next better grade for 5-6 each, and the best ones for 8 or so. I said just get the good ones you cheap SOB. He started whining he couldn't afford that much money, plus all new coils. I didn't even know that the Hemi's had gone to two plugs per cylinder. Technology is great, but, the the engineers and lawyers think we are babbling idiots. If you think cars are bad, try guns. I have every American Rifleman magazine from 1948 to date. The post WWII issues would show you how to notch a bolt and reweld it to move it down so you could mount a scope. Saw one article how to cut the bolt off, mill out the left side of the receiver, and weld it back on, to make it left handed. They acted like every one had a Bridgeport mill in the garage. Now, your lucky if they tell you how to put a damp cloth on a dent in the stock and use an iron to pull the dent out. Then the liability disclaimer is as long as the article was. [/QUOTE]
