Here in SE Texas, I once took a stick-shift Volvo to Dick 'n Sons (true story) Automotive because they had a nice ad in the phone book. When I got there I found out that Dick had died some years back, and his sons had sold the business to Morales y Tio (that's Morales and Uncle, for those who are unolingual). But the sign out front still read Dick 'n Sons. The car had a bad rattling noise when I tromped down on the gas, and they told me I had a cracked flywheel and gave me an estimate. It ain't easy to crack a flywheel on a little four cylinder car, but I agreed to the bottom line and told them to go ahead; but when they took it out I was standing there, and it was okay. Either Morales or Tio scratched his head in puzzlement; and when they put it back in and slid everything together and tightened the nuts, the rattling noise was gone. The same guy shrugged and handed me a bill for one hour of shop time...which was about all it would have taken for them to tighten the nuts in the first place. I paid it and drove away. Had I not been there to inspect it, I suspect my flywheel would have succumbed to to the onslaught of a ball peen hammer untill its configuration matched that of the estimated dollar figure. -- George Bubba Brothers have their sequels, and I’m sure everybody has one.
