Does it really make you guys feel better to tear people down? At least Anton tried to help why don't you listen to your mommy and if you have nothing nice to say shut the h*@L up. Motorpsycho your good enough and smart enough now just work on that self esteem.

REALLY?
well, i understand that people have to learn somewhere.
this is a hobby that isn't for the average joe & when i read things like what he wrote, i just ask myself "why?"
Why did he decided to get into this hobby?
is he really that mechanically challenged?
i mean really, my 10 year old son knows what a piston is by sight, & he knows what it's doing when it's going up & down in the cylinder.
listen to my mommy? well, funny you should mention that because my mommy happens to know more about engines than any other 70 year old woman i know. seeing as how she's married to my dad, who has been a diesel mechanic and hot rod builder for the past 60 or so years.
work on my self esteem huh?
hmmm, seems to me that i don't have a problem with that at all.
I'm sorry if I know a lot about engines, and all things mechanical.
yeah, you should find out who your talking about before you go accusing me of anything.
if i have nothing nice to say "shut the **** up?"
wow, you really got me there.
one of these days when you're having a problem with your engine and you can't fix it, i'll take your advice & shut the **** up.

I'm still trying to work out if the Original Poster is just playing games or is actually a real person. They haven't replied back to any of their posts which seems a little odd.

Now that we know your awesome credentials everyone stand up and give him an applause. If I had a trophy for someone who likes to hear himself talk I would give it to you but sadly I don't. And I never questioned the mechanical skill level of your son or mom so I hope neither of their feelings were hurt but at least you were there to defend their honor.

I agree that one should have basic mechanical skills and knowledge before attempting this hobby if for anything but personal safety. You won't believe some of the builds I've seen by mechanically challenged newbs that were downright scary, not to mention dangerous.

[tooljunkie]

i agree with skyliner,not so much with bikes,but i have seen pretty scary stuff within the automotive industry.
take it any way you like,but it also helps to know the O.P's mechanical aptitude in order to provide appropriate direction.

not knowing what a piston was ,left you wide open for sarcasm.

[tooljunkie]

Posters should acknowledge their age and experience level. I hope he was logged on under your supervision...

[motorpsycho]

Well, that explains a lot. the fact that your 9 year old son was able to access your account. That's what passwords are for.

This is who was posting as far as everyone here knew. Perhaps if your son is going to pursue this hobby as well, a little father and son together time teaching him the basics might be in order. Motor safe and have fun.
